Pros

A good portion of the people are great to work with. I found that at the individual division level and below, people function quite well and work together quite nicely. Once you move to the broader senior leadership, things start to fall apart.

Cons

Bad economic times lead to massive cuts but they still expect the same level of work. They should split the company back into its individual lines of business. They have their fingers in too many pots to keep a singular vision going. The one part of the company that I'm most worried about is UHC--they are going to drive the whole thing into the ground!

Pros

We really try to beat the stereotype of the big bad insurance company. I feel good about going to work every day as I know that I am empowered to help people. I have never seen a claim denied just because we are trying to save money. We have policies that are laid out that dictate how we pay claims, all of them based on medical evidence, not the bottom line.

Cons

In a company this big communication between departments is very difficult. If I have to get work somewhere it can take a long time to get it back, this affects my ablity to help the people that contact me.
