Pros

We have the ability to work from home which is great with gas prices. We get to work with cutting edge information, and new ways of managing diseases.

Cons

I have a manager that is a MICRO-Manager no one seems to care or wants to support the staff. Optum hires managers without looking into their background and their exp.. Inexperienced managers equal dissatisfied employees with no inspiration.

Pros

They are hiring...ALL the time.

Cons

Threats on attendance, will terminate employment if you miss ONE day, pay is lower than other HC insurers, health care ben is horrendous, no sick benefits and a $2200 deductable each year. There is no communication by employers, favorites are played by others. Even the technology tools meant to make UNH "paperless'" do not work on a daily basis. Rather than fix them, their IT dept just rolls out something "new" that totally screws up everything.
