Pros

nice office, pretty decent benefits and good people.

Cons

This company will never change. Controlled by the powers in NY the Portland office is constantly held back and also constantly dealing with high-turn over and lack of direction. For a wellness company, the leadership is very uninspiring. The leadership team has completely turned over several times since I have worked at WebMD. It's sad because there is a lot of potential.

Promises Made, Rarely Kept

Pros

Salary , WFH, PTO were all OK

Cons

This is a toxic company who remain delusional about their value in the marketplace. Clients, and their populations, rarely use the site which results in dismal reporting, and then WebMD looks to their reps to create their value story. A value story that should be created and regularly updated by the company . The truth is, they have no value. They have outdated solutions, outdated internal processes and infrastructure, and an outdated mindset. They are also incredibly cheap. They still use Gmail, expect anyone who travels on company business to use their own personal credit card, and then had the audacity to acquire a company and then lay dozens of folks off after. And, it takes forever to get anything done. There's dismal marketing support as the marketing and value propositions seem as though they were created by a 5th grader. There's no differentiation in value amongst their competitors outside of WebMD being far, far behind their nearest one.

Pros

I had to think (really hard) for more than 30 seconds, therefore...I say "none" to you.

Cons

It's pointless for me to even bother listing specifics, almost anything I care to mention has already been covered in the hundreds of prior reviews. Note that the company seems to want to sell off certain parts of the company, specifically the Portland business unit which is why they canned the former COO and hired a new "Health Services" CEO. He's most likely got a compensation structure if he can drive revenue to let's say $200 million and get some healthplan interested in a buyout. Frankly, he's an unqualified medical devices salesman and his right-hand man including all of the VP level leaders in the organization are just a bunch of talking heads who cow-tow to the queen of finance and king of legal in the NYC office, who incidentally are the real people calling the shots.
