Pros

The people were fantastic to work with.

Cons

The training was completely incorrectly designed to meet the needs of the position and did not adequately prepare me to do the job I was hired to do. This is definitely a place where you are thrust among the wolves and expected to "figure it out as you go". In the complex realm of medical coding and billing this was a horribly helpless sensation. It should also be mentioned that the level of expertise needed to operate in this position and purely the amount of work in this position merits much more than the compensation offered.

Seattle office

Pros

My colleagues are great people to work with. I admire all of them, and each bring skills that really help with our mission. Working downtown Seattle was fun at first, but that novelty wore off quickly. Pay is okay for the social service field.

Cons

Unless you pay for your own parking, you'll be using public transit, which is unreliable and can take HOURS to get to/from work. "Leadership" (what they call themselves) doesn't care about employee happiness, and they make that clear. Feel free to express your concerns to HR, but the only result will be getting targeted by management. There is no confidentiality between employees and supervisors, any private matter will be the next days gossip. Zero flexibility with your time. Zero work/life balance. This job could be performed remotely, like most insurance companies do, but coordinated care does not allow it for any reason. Unless you're "leadership", then rules don't apply. There are a lot of very talented people who work here, but they are quickly leaving because of the micromanaging, intense workloads and lack of trust with management. I could go on and on, but I hope this gets the point across.
