Pros

The money, benefits, bonus and vacation

Cons

Quiet and somber environment, can't trust anyone, people out for your job, HR and management can be corrupt. Becarful of who you are buddies with. Trust no one there. For a good handful of years things were great! But be careful when you switch departments. You may get caught up in a negative group. Some managers will destroy your career and think nothing about it because you pose a threat either to their ego or to them hitting their numbers. If you are an attractive female, beware because men will flaunt around to be near you and some female managers will take it out on you. The female will pay for it while the males keep their jobs. HR is just as corrupt. They will do everything they can to make you out to be the crazy bad guy because employees sue this company for foul play left and right. They will tear down all your good work and shred you limb from limb fearful of losing all the good benefits they once gave you. Some managers are amazing and mean well but beware not all of them like you. They will smile with you and make you feel good until the moment you see them try to fire you. When you go to HR your manager will lash out on you. As long as it's not in writing they can tell you anything and pretend nothing was ever said. Employees will become scared to associate with you once you are labeled bad and company trash. You will see this happen to other employees and someone will always have a story that makes the employee out to be the bad guy and worthy of losing their job. But when it's your turn, then the truth comes to light and you know it's not always the employee. This company is huge and can be scary when it's you they are out to get ride of. My advice don't fight back. Just quietly leave and move on. Don't be scared when it's your turn. Hopefully you will be one of the lucky ones they don't shark. Once a hater wants you out. Then you are out. They will try to dig up anything on you just to get ride of you. All executives know the corrupt side of the company but everyone is scared and plays the game because they too all have families to feed. Good luck. If you get an opportunity obviously go for it. Just save your money because there is a high possibility you will be next.

Great benefits and company culture, frequent opportunities to interface with senior leaders and executives.

Roles and responsibilities are demanding, complex organization to understand, and requires in-office days if you are in proximity to a regional hub.

Pros

2 weeks vacation, 180 hours of yearly sick time. The HSA benefits were good for my family of 3. Exposure to the Healthcare industry.

Cons

The management is very dishonest. They are known to sexually harrass employees and will work you to the bone with a promise of a fake promotion if you take on extra work. You will not get promoted for hard work or for taking on any extra work, you will not get promoted for your loyalty and commitment to your position as an essential healthcare worker or for exceeding or meeting your yearly review expectations only if you're a favorite of the management and keep your mouth shut about inappropriate conversations you might get promoted and that's a big maybe. If you show signs of prosperity or that you live comfortably they will not promote you. If you voice concerns about unfair promotions and tactics they will find a way to create bogus fake write ups and when u contest them they never respond. Management promised me at least 3 different promotions but the management is disingenuous they used me for the very heavy work loads (50 emails and calls a day working 35 hours overtime every two weeks for 7 years] and after 7 years of working me to the bone and suffering injuries due to this position they will find a way to terminate you because half of the people that work as case Managers are currently on disability paid leave for the inhumane work environment they created. This place is walking labor law violation stay far away, the sexual harassment by so called management to peers has been well documented. I've never worked at a place where they will lie to your face about promoting you and give you awards for most valuable colleague people's choice award letters of commendation and then when you're fed up about being lied to about promotions and voice your concerns they fire you for fake reasons. In 7 years management refused to create a career development plan for me each time I asked the reason why I was told I didnt need one because im so tenured I just need to apply to get promoted. After 4 trys it didnt happen, when I voiced my concerns they let me go for fake reasons. They have the worst HR and I mean the worst. They are unprofessional and will not respond to any rebuttals or refutes to bogus claims made against you also they speak to you disrespectfully like youre a child. I got into a near fatal car accident and had a severe concussion omw to work i remember calling my supervisor and telling her what happend and then I went into the hospital for a week to recover my 1st day back at work HR called a meeting and literally yelled at me for not telling them about my accident even though I told my manager but guess she didnt tell HR about mu accident. Like i said Stay far away.
