Pros

Solid company with clear direction for the future. The executive committee is a very respectable and talented leadership-body, that IS trying to make a difference in the world, and the workplace.

Cons

Mis-micromanaging everyone because there are loafers that actually need to be managed. I fear people are afraid to "let people go" but I believe that sends a message to them; that their incorrect behavior didn't advance them, and maybe they should change. However, if the leadership is guilty of similar behavior, then they cannot comfortably do-so. I think leadership should be screened for their interpersonal, psychological and people-skills. I have had some very unprofessional and negative experiences. Multiple incidences where I was so shocked that I had to question whether or not I was in the Twilight Zone. Also, I believe when you chain a dog; they are going to run if you let them off.

Pros

Excellent growth potential for a leading & trusted business within the industry; the job market is slow, but Humana has been growing - great leadership!

Cons

As with any business, associates and management seem to get caught up in the "daily grind" forgetting to provide value feedback in a more timely manner - whether it comes to just a thank you / pat on the back to everyone getting on the same page......timely communication between all is crucial.

Pros

There is a lot of growth opportunity as well as education opportunities such as tuition reimbursement and online classes that can lead to certifications.

Cons

work/life balance options are not plentiful such as working from home. These are offered only in some departments. IT should be one of those departments, but as a whole it is not an overall option. Also some positions seem to be geared towards certain groups of people.
