Pros

The "people" want to do a good job Middle management tries hard to create a good work environment The 2006 roll-out of the "new" Blue Shield logo was a great success

Cons

Not rewarded for taking risks/punished for thinking independently and making decisions Poor senior leaderhsip/no visionaries Wearing people out - no work-life balance for managers and above Spending too much money for system upgrades that ultimately won't improve speed/quality Strategic Plan is a joke...

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.
