Most Corrupt & Dishonest Company Ever

Pros

Great financial benefits while it lasts.

Cons

Upper management was the most corrupt and dishonest I’ve ever seen. They routinely lie to your face, plot against entire teams of employees, and cut people loose with one day notice once they’ve sucked everything out of the person. I used to hold and manage security clearances in the military, but would not have been comfortable endorsing any managers at Optum/UHG. Scary.
