Pros

The hours are dependable and there is a lot of Overtime offered. Some of the Supervisors in my project are phenomenal and there for you if needed.

Cons

Pay is decent, I wish there were more opportunities for pay increase, don’t bother asking. They don’t give you the chance, choice or option. Favoritism is highly in play here!! If you excel in cross training they hold you to a higher standard and if you fail you will not advance within the project dept. Unreasonable quota per day for application completion. They preach about 100% total customer satisfaction yet they treat the actual workers terrible.

Pros

You get to work for a company that helps people. On a daily basis, your work can positively affect the lives of people who are struggling. You have the opportunity to really make a difference and do work that is meaningful.

Cons

They do not treat their employees very well. Pay is average at best. Job stress is high. Turnover is the highest in any company I've been with. They do not screen new employees well or explain the nature of the job to new hires. This results in very high turnover and what is often a very frustrating work environment. We regularly do not have the staff we need to meet our basic customer needs, let alone meet our monthly and quarterly performance goals.

Pros

A paycheck that’s about it!

Cons

They will work you to the bone. Very little money in budgets for raises or promotions. If your project doesn’t see fit , no raise for you. Other projects are thrown on you but with no additional pay. So basically they hire you to manage one project then they add on others but you will not receive any money for these new duties. Lots of favoritism on the HSNA Human Capital and Health Human Capital . It’s government contracting so if your project loses the bid , you have no job. Run very fast from this place, it’s not good. I am so happy to be gone from this place. There is also no development from your Supervisor or Manager just more work to overwhelm you.
