Pros

They have a lot of money, so getting software and hardware isn't much trouble.

Cons

The absolute worst health insurance plans I've ever seen. Seeing as how this company is a health insurance and health care provider, the fact that they offer such terrible insurance to employees demonstrates they have no value towards them. On top of that the plans are getting more expensive each year with worse deductibles. The more you make the higher your insurance rate, and also there is a penalty to insure a spouse if they are eligible for insurance with their employer.
