Not so great but not so terrible

Business Outlook

Pros

You get all your PTO up front. Benefits are okay. The company tries to hand out rewards here and there. If you are starting out in Health Care a good place to begin. You can learn alot if you choose too. Overall, the jpb paid the bills.

Cons

Depending on the office your work in it can be stressful work environment. If you are a Customer Service rep, you are pretty much chained to your desk-you have to work off of strict time constraints. Working for this company is the same as any other corporate America company. It is not what you know-it is who you know.

Pros

They offer great vacation time and are flexible with work schedule. Variety of positions within the company as well as numerous work-at-home positions.

Cons

Makes exceptions to policies as they see fit. Most management plays favorites and those are the people that move up in the company regardless of qualifications or job performance. Rewards employees who are unethical. ie. employees that steal office supplies

Magellan of AZ has it's ups and downs.

Business Outlook

Pros

A lot of support from the corporate level. Very intelligent leadership. Many of the employees have worked in the same type of position, under the same contract, but with a different employer. Thus, you have a wealth of knowledge.

Cons

Some micromanagement from corporate. Too little internal-facing leadership. Most of the good leaders are good at leading community stakeholders. No regular employee promotions of any note.
