UnitedHealth Group reviews

Even the top performers do not get more than a 3% annual raise and if you don't make the cut, well sorry but you get nothing. There is no cost of living raises. You must be a top performer based on their metric system to get an annual bonus. Bonuses have decreased every year and I have been there for 11 years. They took away completely little incentive awards we could potentially get based on performance. The workload is heavy, pace is constant. Always changing policies and systems without prior notice. Micromanaged to death. Upper management tells us they want to hear from us yet when we tell them what we want it falls on deaf ears. They say they value their employees but is does not show in any tangible way. Our health insurance options are terrible and we work for a health insurance company. There is no opportunity for advancement. Your direct supervisor is overwhelmed and does not have time to talk you about next steps for advancing your career. Morale here is pretty low right now.

Mass layoffs are far too frequent-while many other companies CEO’s are forgoing their million dollar salaries to minimize RIF, it’s just not the case with UHC. Most recently an entire segment of roles was eliminated, only to have the same roles be posted for applicants with several days later. Using layoffs to meet their bottom line is just not a culture that values people.
