Pros

There are some very bright and innovative minds at this company. The technology that is coming out of here is very cutting edge and there isn't a company in the HIT market that offers anything similar to the product suite at Medicity. The company has an excellent medical benefits, 401k and PTO package. Generally speaking, executive management is well intentioned.

Cons

Communication and operational organization are horrible here. Departments and managers are constantly engaging in political turf wars because communication is lacking or there is a lack of clearly defined policies. Medicity seems to pay below fair market value for a lot of their jobs. However, this seems to be turning around since their acquisition by Aetna. There is no focus on career growth and planning. There is no process for offering new job opportunities to internal employees before posting job openings to the general public. If you want to climb the ladder here, you are left to your own devices and will have to keep your eye on the public job board.

Pros

Medicity has some good product lines and quite a few loyal employees. Work is fairly flexible - if you need to take time off, it's generally not a problem, flexible shifts and in some positions, the ability to work remotely.

Cons

Medicity is trying to grow up, it just doesn't know how. The company keeps trying to function as a startup when in reality, they should have transitioned to a small-mid business plan. The product lines they have are okay, but could be so much more if the Product team was allowed to own their products instead of Operations and Sales. This causing a constant state of chaos and firefighting. The executive staff has built an environment of fear and distrust. No one is empowered to make decisions without approval from the COO. Employee survey results are terrible, yet nothing is done to fix any of the issues. Crazy sock day just isn't going to resolve things. Executive management increased by 200% this year. The rest of the staff decreased due to layoffs and atrophy. And considering the parent company is Aetna, benefits are shocking terrible.
