Optum reviews

Constant layoffs or concerns with budget, hiring freeze, reorgs Forced certain percentage of low yearly rating/pip Non existent coordinated org tech, everyone does their own thing including devops/cloud No room for growth

Nearly impossible to network due to the number of employees. Right now there are almost no openings, so competition is awful. Benefits aren't that great for a health insurance company. When you resign, all PTO is immediately frozen (even pre-approved) and none is paid out on leaving. Bonuses and raises are partly on merit but are also allocated in tiers. So if you do a good job, but are determined to be in the middle third, your raise and bonus will be lower than top tier. Even if you're a top performer, management is required to divide their team into the 3 tiers, so excellent performers can end up with poor raises.
