Get in the right IT group, and you're golden - choose carefully!

Senior manager, analysis & programming

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great pay & benefits. Lots & lots & lots of projects to work on, (in IT). If you're in the right group, you can find some extremely talented and collaborative people who'll make your job easier, and push you to do more than you thought you could.

Cons

CIO isn't a team-builder. He encourages his direct reports to work directly for their goals, irrespective of larger IT goals or collaboration. My VP works differently within his group, but he's definitely the exception as the other VPs & Sr. Directors all pit their own groups against one-another, and certainly don't collaborate outwards.

Great Place to Work

Business Outlook

Pros

Magellan is a great Place to work. They are very flexible when it comes to balancing work and home life. The pay is great. Depending on the department you are in you have the ability to work from home when necessary. Upper management at least in EDI expects you to be a super star. They want the best of the best, which gives you a goal to work towards.

Cons

Training is not the greatest. They pretty much expect you to already know your job when they hire you. People tend to hord information. I guess in fear of you taking their job.
