Pros

- Everyone I worked with, up to my boss' boss, was extremely professional and competent. - The company itself is focused on something I think is very important (value-based care), and the theoretical business model is promising. - By all indications the company is trying to do right by laid off employees, with generous notice, severance packages, and some (albeit limited) transitions services. - As a developer I was largely given autonomy and trusted to make decisions. But I understand this is more a function of my direct bosses, and not at all representative of other teams.

Cons

Moves by leadership give the impression they either have no idea what they're doing, no one is rowing in the same direction, or there is no focused vision for the business. Some examples: - I counted THREE reorganizations of just my org in as many months. - There were new people starting quite literally the day before every person in my org, up to my boss' boss' boss, was laid off. So either leadership had no clue about the changes coming to necessitate the layoff, or they knew yet continued to allow everyone affected to operate like normal for quite some time. - Leadership obviously had zero or no ability to assess or mitigate what anyone could see was the biggest risk in the ECS business. So when the very likely event of BCPIA not paying as much for episodes actually happened, their only option turned out to be to just throw away a staggering amount of talent and institutional knowledge. As an employee and investor in the company, that gives me extreme pause. - In terms of organizational technology there is absolutely zero vision, strategy, or cohesion from top leadership. Mandates to use key tools and systems seemed to change arbitrarily with migration support either chaotic or unavailable, resulting in a lot of time wasted simply transitioning between equivalent systems.

Thank you for your review. We are glad that you enjoy the people you work with and the meaningful work we do here. Our decision to wind down our Episodes of Care Services (ECS) segment was made in order to focus on our fast-growing and profitable Home and Community Services (HCS) business and recent Caravan Health acquisition. We also made this decision after determining that we would be exiting the CMS’ Bundled Payments for Care Improvement-Advanced (BPCI-A) program in light of newly released information from CMS that made the program unsustainable for our clients and for Signify Health. We are working hard to make sure that all employees who are impacted by these changes are supported as they transition to their next opportunity. Please talk to your manager or HRBP--they are here to answer questions and help you as we work through the situation.

Pros

$21/hr starting pay is pretty decent but not life changing for all of the SOP's, Random new apps and features they add last minute without informing their teams and then the forced weekends.

Cons

Forced weekends Not any flexibility whatsoever Terrible leadership
