WebMD Health reviews

Management doesn't value WebMD Health Services. It is managed and budget controlled by executives who don't know or understand the business as they work for another part of the company. There is little investment in WHS. You will not have much room or ability to bring in modern or needed products and solutions to make a difference. WHS is managed as a cost center to keep costs minimal. There is little effort to solve problems with financial support. Instead employees will be asked or it will be implied that they have to cover multiple roles instead resourcing projects and efforts normally. The people who control the budget rarely if ever actually visit the WHS office so they make decisions based on little personal knowledge of the business.

- Several people are comfortable hence they don't really put in 100% - Lagging behind on innovation. They analyze the competition and adapt for internal use. - In all my time there I only received actionable feedback once the rest of the time management didn't bother to fill out their portion of the performance eval and feedback was "keep doing what you're doing" - Product development is based on what they want to sell versus based on client unmet needs - Lack of vision on the senior leadership side. They love to hear themselves speak but don't leverage insights that mid-level staff can provide in terms of trends, unmet client needs, etc. - Noncompetitive salaries and pitiful yearly raises. - Zero to little commitment to career growth. They don't strive to develop or nuture their mid-level staff.
