Pros

Great peers to work with, and lots of challenges to address. The organization is willing to heavily invest in capital projects. Embraces Lean IT and Agile development and is growing a DevOps culture.

Cons

WebMD Health Services division is a sales driven organization that is focused on short term revenue. The leadership is heavily development focused, emphasizing releasing new product while defering technical debt and support. Leadership does not understand the total cost of ownership of the WebMD Health Services products and services. Leadership supports and encourages 'Yes' folks.

Pros

They used to have great perks and work life balance. People were friendly. I was able to move around according to my interest at the time. They didn't hesitate to provide training and bootcamps to help people grow in skill set.

Cons

Morale was low 6-8 months before the massive lay offs in 2013. I was not laid off but Once I started looking for a new job I realized I was being underpaid by 20k according to the job market. After the lay offs hit they hemorrhaged most of their talented people. All the perks were cut off abruptly.
