Premera Blue Cross reviews

-In my group, senior leadership couldn't manage themselves out of a paper bag. Sort of astonishing level of incompetence. -Management showed little to no interest in creating the conditions for success -If I had a dollar for every meeting I attended, I could retire. Totally excessive. -Management definitely fostered a culture of fear and conflict -In terms of technology, management expertise, operations and processes, openness to innovation, rapidity of change, etc, joining Premera is like joining a state-owned company in the 1950's. If you like that sort of thing, go for it!

I've been working in IT for twenty years and I've seen a lot but this by far is the most dysfunctional IT Department I've ever worked in. There is NO Leadership with vision and strategy alignment with the business units. The mismanagement in the Leadership ranks is frightening. It appears they all came from failed companies or were shed by downsizing. There are so many former WaMu people there they could rename it WaMu II. Most of the line staff walks around gleefully unaccountable for producing anything, coming in late and leaving early and socializing most of the day away. There are a lot of people riding on the backs of the few that are working hard there. My advice, if you’re in the IT profession, don’t come here.
