Pros
Good benefits and generally friendly coworkers
Cons
The CEO of Blue Shield decided to break the internal IT department off into its own company. Things are not going well. Entire departments are laid off with just an email announcement on Friday afternoons. There is no real business plan, products, or path forward. Expect to be laid off soon. Management keeps telling us how we will soon be replaced by AI and foolishly buys into every bit of AI marketing hype to the detriment of the parent company. The expectation is that the IT department is now a technology company but salaries are still at non profit levels.
