Pros

-Benefits and compensation -Work-Life balance -Commute -Very smart and educated staff

Cons

-In my group, senior leadership couldn't manage themselves out of a paper bag. Sort of astonishing level of incompetence. -Management showed little to no interest in creating the conditions for success -If I had a dollar for every meeting I attended, I could retire. Totally excessive. -Management definitely fostered a culture of fear and conflict -In terms of technology, management expertise, operations and processes, openness to innovation, rapidity of change, etc, joining Premera is like joining a state-owned company in the 1950's. If you like that sort of thing, go for it!

Pros

Good Benefits and pension if you can endure 5 years.

Cons

Too much Micro Management. The processors do not have to have stop watches while working to perform well. Inhumanly stressful.
