OB care management department

Pros

Work from home, great salary and benefits. Usually will get bonuses but not always a guarantee

Cons

It has not always been this way but my advice is to currently stay away from this department. Current management does not care about the employees or their satisfaction. It is a very negative work environment. The department is discouraged from communicating or voicing concerns and if they do they are met with passive aggressiveness. Upper level management's main concern is how much money they can save the company. Keeping the employees or the members happy are absolutely not a concern and the work environment is extremely stressful most of the time.

Worst place I have ever worked

Pros

There are no pros to working here. Do not bother applying or interviewing because they simply lie in the interview about the job duties anyway.

Cons

It is all bait and switch. They lie about what the job entails at the interview process and continue lying after you are hired. Management just delegates everything and takes no responsibility for anything. Their methods with the members constitute harassment. Fear is the dominant aura and its common to see employees crying. Been job searching since day one but the market around here is not good. Money is okay here but not enough to keep people around. Turn over is very high. DO NOT WORK HERE unless you like to be miserable on a daily basis.

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.
