Pros

decent insurance, decent PTO bank, annual bonus, good coworkers, excellent cafeteria with home made organic choices, close walk to PSU, public transit, etc.

Cons

equal pay doesn't exist here... men get paid MUCH more money for the same job than women do, paying to park in downtown Portland is $300/mo with no assistance/reimbursement, benefits are VERY expensive (about 1/2 my check for my benefits package for family coverage) and it's not worth what i pay for it.

Thank you for your thoughts on your experience at Cambia. Our dedication to our Cause and focus on transforming health care creates a special workplace, and I'm glad that you have also been enjoying the employee benefits (and great food). I regret, however, that you feel pay is unfair. We are conscientious and rigorous in reviewing pay, taking into account many factors such as experience, education, skill level and performance. Our compensation team also conducts regular market reviews on fair pay. I would be happy to talk to you more to learn about your concerns.

Pros

Good pay and benefits for Portland market. Some good people who needed a paycheck landed there. Good location for bike commuting from east or west side. Close to downtown and river front so you can get away from the office as often as you like (and you'll need that).

Cons

Finance is managed by former consultants and others with no formal finance training or experience, with hilarious results. There is a lot of made up stuff that you wouldn't find in any other finance department anywhere and will leave you shaking your head. Lack basic controls so they have an army of people whose only job seems to be to find mistakes and create a pool of people they can fire when anything goes wrong. In short, they haven't a clue what they're doing. The work is not meaningful and there are no clear roles and responsibilities. The top guys in finance like to order people around and are constantly reorganizing and changing your responsibilities without a care what employees think. Turnover is high. Morale is low. Overall the company is hemorrhaging cash in their core business all the while investing huge sums (hundreds of millions) on goofy health apps that nobody uses and other pet projects of the top executives. Non-profit healthcare has huge profits that they have to spend on frivolous things instead of reducing premiums, so it's a huge contributor to the cost of healthcare in this country. So don't be fooled by the "non-profit" banner and all the advertising about how "member-focused" they are. They have an army of people dedicated to reducing what claims they'll pay and they could care less about people and their medical conditions. It's a national shame.

Pros

Loved my team, loved my job, made contributions to the organization that endure to this day.

Cons

After nearly a decade of work, including implementing new programs and building culture, I was unceremoniously ousted by a toxic manager (who I am quite sure took delight in it), under the guise of budget/cost-savings. I gave blood, sweat and tears to the organization and endured a lot. Just don't expect any loyalty -- even if you are a consistent performer. If they feel you are used up, you're out. I landed on my feet, but for all the talk of palliative care, the concern for the "death" of an employee's job and the accompanying grief is nonexistent. It's something that I still grieve today.

Thank you for sharing your experience, and I regret that your time at Cambia ended in a disappointing way. Thank you for contributing to the company for eight+ years. I'm not sure if your work focused on palliative care, but we continue to be committed to that initiative and the difference that it can make for a patient and their family. If you would like to share more about your experience, please reach out to me. Elizabeth Hall VP, Employee Experience elizabeth.hall@cambiahealth.com
