Transition to hourly status

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Companay has pretty good benefits.

Cons

Transition to hourly status is such a horrible business decision. No input from employees. Morale is at an all time low. Many are saying they will be going to Labor Union or DOL to file complaints. Never seen a high level clinician like myself be treated like a factory worker. Most are silent now as they don't want to speak up and be retaliated against but the storm is coming and CalOptima will be left with no one as many plan to leave. No other company would treat us like this. Company will try to find out who wrote this but that is retaliation. We know our rights to grieve and to do it confidentially and without retaliation. It is also called free speech. Please share with Board.

Disappointed with Human Resources

Business Outlook

Pros

The majority of the employees are enjoyable to work with.

Cons

Like any places of employment, there are bad apples but unfortunately management takes too long to rectify the situation and do not recognize the hard work of those who make regular contributions for the success of the department, in addition to Human Resources not being educated enough to deal with situations that arise accordingly - to many management issues to be addressed in a more timely manner.
