Pros

Health benefits other than medical are rich, comprehensive plans. When aligned with the right allies, upward mobility takes little effort. Reward system in place, when upper staff recognizes you going above & beyond the call of duty.

Cons

Took a base position with the promise of market expansion & upward mobility. After nearly 4 years of empty promises and even earned my insurance license to prepare for the possibility, was informed that management had no plans of expansion & I was just out of luck. They recognized my skills, but I had an issue with their little hesitation to have me doing tasks meant for upper positions or filling in for people making 50%+ of my salary, with little representation, in addition to my existing tasks. I am more useful than just being used as everyone's secretary. I gave them plenty of time and eventually resigned. Found an Account Management position with a different company & industry, performing the job I was trying to get Humana to promote me to, and for once, I'm being paid for what I'm worth. For future employees, be wary of their medical plan. Humana puts their employees on a plan we in Sales couldn't even sell to groups. It's not a comprehensive plan, which for a healthcare carrier, is an embarrassment.

Pros

- some desire for modernization

Cons

Interviewed for a internal role in a second round in a team - the team didn't sell the role, the impression I got was you will work nights and overtime to commit to deadlines. questions asked: - examples of situations in your current job where there was disagreement between you and someone else in team. Thought this was too intrusive - how do you handle disagreements - how are you able to multi-task - are you able to commit to deadlines Got a very bad vibe with the team
