Pros

For early career professionals, this can be a good stepping stone for a better opportunity elsewhere.

Cons

My personal experience with Cigna’s TECDP program was subpar and not what it was advertised to be. The program allows you 3 rotations, 1 of which I had no manager for an entire rotation and the other 2 I was passed around to a new manager almost every other month (5 new managers in total). A rotational program is supposed to be an enriching experience for your career, and aside from maybe the last 3 months of my time in the program, I wasted my time and learned absolutely nothing. This is a shared experience across the board that I’d say maybe 70% of TECDPs experience. With that being said, there are a handful of caring managers in the program but they are rare. The TECDPs who had great experiences with their managers and team typically go on to finish the program, stay at Cigna, and get promoted. Take the risk if you want but beware!

Pros

I was based at Cigna’s Bloomfield headquarters and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I had the opportunity to work alongside exceptionally smart, action-oriented colleagues and business partners who were knowledgeable, responsive, and dependable. People knew their subject matter, provided direct answers, and consistently followed through on their commitments. The organization was highly professional, well-managed, and organized. The Wilde Building had a positive, forward-thinking energy that made it an enjoyable place to work. The cafeteria offered excellent food options, and the views overlooking Gillette Ridge Golf Club were a nice bonus. 30% annual bonus was greatly appreciated. Finally, I personally believed in the leadership of the CEO and the entire ELT.

Cons

During my two years with the company, I reported to three different managers, which created instability. One manager, in particular, created significant challenges for both the broader team and me. Multiple team members raised concerns with Human Resources, but no action was taken. The company also regularly conducts smaller-scale workforce reductions and position eliminations. These actions can occur across various departments and at different times, which creates uncertainty among employees. Because these reductions are small, they don't trigger a WARN Act or receive media attention. As a result, employees feel a heightened sense of job insecurity regarding future organizational changes.
