      Pros

      There's usually a good work life balance. People tend to be very smart and there's ample opportunity for learning if you pursue it yourself.

      Cons

      Very slow moving and resistance to change -- some stubbornly maintain the status quo. Mediocrity is pervasive in some departments.

      Decent salary, ok benefits, lots of suspicion, red tape, and inefficiency

      Pros

      The pay was good for the work I was doing, and paid-time-off was very generous. Blue Shield does promote a work life balance. Work was challenging, but not overly exciting. The people were generally friendly, but only within your own department.

      Cons

      There's a lot of inefficiencies and red tape. Therefore, it takes a long time and a lot of patience to accomplish something. Departments are very silo-ed, so very little internal communication takes place. People from other departments will be suspicious of you when you approach them initially, but generally they are cooperative once you get past that wall.

      Pros

      Incredibly smart people with a willingness to share their abilities and talents with others. Always looking to be on the cutting edge of healthcare and trying to offer the best products to the consumers and companies.

      Cons

      not much cross departmental communication even among individuals on the same floor. The ability to advance within the company depends not necessarily on performance.
