Pros

Pay is half decent but raises are pathetic.

Cons

Management, Staffing, Long Hours, Work Life Balance. Work load is overwhelming due to inconsistent staff. Employee retention is the worst that I have ever seen. Too cliquey in this department. Everyone thinks they are the boss and knows more than everyone else. Half of the department has some kind of title yet the employee manual states that everyone is equal, except for the department manager. Benefits are great BUT only when you stay in the area. If you need major surgery, etc. and need to go out of the area, your coverage will significantly decrease. Overall, a very big turn around on staff, work load indicates need for large increase in pay, cliquey staff, new employees and travelers are not treated well by coworkers, and schedule leaves no time to have a life!

Pros

Worked fully remote which worked for me. Great health benefits. Worked for health plan not clinical.

Cons

Limited opportunities for growth without a college degree. Typical corporate where they cut resources and make big demands. Many long time employees which I thought was a pro at first, but realized they are stuck in old ways and don’t really want to hear a fresh new perspective or even spend time developing new people. As someone with ambition and interest in contributing, I felt stuck, limited, and bored.
