Pros

There were definitely some really good people there.

Cons

Upper management beat us down all the time. The company culture was very poor and it was clear they didn't care about us and only cared about making money.

Pros

Overall name recognition of company. Financial ratings of company. Product offerings were competitive in the industry. The top mascot branding of all mascots. Snoopy rocks.

Cons

Inconsistent management philosophies. Unethical management hiring practices. Hired away from competitor to fill Sales Manager (Functional Specialist) position. Position never actually even existed. Less than average training programs. Minimal administrative support. Compliance and regulatory guidance was non existent.

Pros

Fair salary. Possible work from home. Retirement contribution match.

Cons

Since 2012, this company has gone downhill. Horrible management with little knowledge of how to effectively manage and motivate staff. Too much work and severely understaffed. Random pet projects take the focus off of the work we should be doing. No respect for professionalism, workers experience or opinions. It feels they are just grasping at straws for a direction. Changing names of the same process...do it this way one year then next year do the opposite. Completely chaotic. The people currently in charge should not be. You wonder how they got there. There are wonderful people who work here but their strengths and assets are never used. Low morale, and lots of turn over especially among case managers. Also, not much room for advancement. It is just a job...not a career, career path or anything that you makes you feel like a professional
