Pros

Salary OK for the industry. Some very hopeful new management, who are trying to regain momentum on being a Great Place to Work.

Cons

BSC is a Healthcare Insurance company trying to become IT company that also does Healthcare Insurance. It is not working. The 8+ year Facets roll out is a good example. Stay focused on what you do best and outsource the rest. Remember when you do outsource to actually trust your consultants. Too much turn over in Sr., Director, VP and C-Level Management, ill thought-out reorgs, and layoffs depleted moral and made working relationships difficult. The leftovers are mostly “just happy to have a job" and that attitude has led to fear based decision making. Not healthy. Not a Great Place to Work -- right now.

Pros

Limited knowledge transfer and onboarding support for new team members. New hires are often expected to figure things out with minimal guidance. Workplace politics can sometimes impact collaboration and decision-making. Managers may not always be actively involved in supporting team members or addressing concerns. Full-time employees are occasionally treated differently than contractors, creating an uneven work environment. Documentation and process knowledge sharing could be improved. Work culture can be stressful at times, leading to challenges with work-life balance and employee morale.

Cons

Good exposure to projects and technologies. Opportunity to work independently and take ownership of tasks.
