Blue Shield of California Land of Opportunity - Senior Manager Blue Shield Of California Employee Review

Pros

Opportunities abound as the company struggles with complacency to stay #3 in the market. Projects to follow the latest "strategic direction" are many and offer a myriad of choices for the adventurous employee.

Cons

Senior Management fails to recognize what is going on in the industry and rarely leave their confines on the Executieve Floor. Large scale, failed programs and projects continue to be the norm, as do the inept people who lead these disasters. The company actually rewards failure by allowing these people to move on to another program or project, sometimes with a promotion. The company preaches employee retention and " we value our best" but does little to keep the people who actually find success, know the industry and make a difference.

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.
