Very poor mgmt. high turnover, frequent layoffs, VP Operations is not nice or easy to work for. Poor training and micro management. Was constantly Being talked down to, made to feel stupid or told certain people didn’t have to “think” - lost a lot of good team members due to this Mgr.

Pros

My peers were great to work with, despite lack of opportunities for growth and poor treatment by leaders.

Cons

If you have an MBA from an Ivy school or if your spouse works for Bain and you have connections with the C-suite, then you will have no problem being promoted, whether or not you have relevant experience. For everyone else, you'll struggle in the trenches and do all the grunt work for the upper level.

Worst Mistake of My Career

Pros

There's some genuinely passionate people in the company.

Cons

Zelis is severely lacking professional maturity in leadership at all levels. It is evident in their inability to maintain any sort of significant tenure of employees below a Manager or Director level. There's retaliation from leaders all over the organization and when employees speak up about it, it's swept under the rug as if it never happened. So many teams are left scrambling and working long hours due to the Yes-man mentality of their leaders (which is really the culture of the organization). Seriously talented professionals and leaders get let go from this company because they push back on things that make sense to push back on, and since executive leadership is threated by them, they just fire them without cause.
