Pros

Wellmark's culture and inclusive initiatives are impressive. Between the benefits offered to employees and the engagement at all levels it's no surprise Wellmark has received the honors it has. Glad to see our organization care for members in Iowa as well as South Dakota

Cons

It's hard to remember all the services available to employees between benefits, Starbucks on sight, dry cleaning, a great gym and great food.

Great Benefits - little chance to grow professionally

Pros

The organization offers great compensation, benefits and culture. The organization encourages a healthy personal lifestyle with the many incentives and opportunities.

Cons

If you are looking to working for a company that will help you to grow professionally, Wellmark has a wonderful education reimbursement program and other opportunities. If you are looking to "get your foot in the door" and hope to promote you will need to either be extremely patient (talking years, many, many years) or get at least 4 years of experience someplace else in a position and then apply. You can increase your education while there, but you should probably be prepared to get the experience someplace else as Wellmark hires from the outside (for turnkey employees) rather than growing their own from the inside. You can't beat the educational reimbursement, just plan your path carefully and be ready to make the change when you complete your program. Wellmark does not allow for "work from home" flexibility.
