Pros

Jon Security (if you want to work there)

Cons

Their "My Health plan" is "self insured." I was preapproved for surgery. I paid a surprise bill of over $2300 at admission to the hospital. Thirteen months later I received another surprise bill for $45,113.69. They know how their health plan works, with "balance billing." THEY DON'T CARE. RUN DON'T WALK AWAY!
