Pros
Some of the good: - VHA has positioned itself to be a true industry leader due to its current merger/acquisition activity - In general, people here are very friendly and knowledgeable. - Corporate offices are nice - Pretty generous PTO policy - Good 401k match - You can wear jeans every day if you choose to do so - Nice on-site gym (membership required) - Depending on your department, you can pretty much come and go as you please.
Cons
Some of the bad: - Horrible high-deductible health insurance policy. I would expect much more from a company known for its contracting ability. - Constant change. We've spent all of 2015 dealing with the UHC merger, and nothing ever gets settled. Lots of layoffs, so don't get too comfortable. - Massive duplication of effort within the company. At any given time, there might be three teams working on the same type of initiative and they won't even know about each other. - Innovation is a buzzword, but this company is NOT innovative in the slightest. - If you're in mid-management, your title doesn't mean squat. "Like your office? Tough. Go grab the empty desk by the trash can." - Leadership is totally full of it about values, people, blah, blah, blah...but hey, isn't that the norm? - No willingness to invest small amounts into day-to-day projects, but will spend billions on mergers and acquisitions or consulting. And we DO consulting, for Pete's sake. - It's all about who you know and who you work for. Politics, baby.
