Pros

The team members were fantastic to work along side.

Cons

The management was horrid on the Group side. If you did not follow the pecking order you were a cast off. Do not speak up, because leadership does not want to hear it. All they want are "yes" people. They work you to death without batting an eye because bottom line is "do more with less" in an extreme fashion.

Pros

Ability to move around to different roles within the company every few years, which keeps work interesting. Competitive compensation.

Cons

As I've seen with many large companies - need to deal with 'corporate politics' & can be lots of red tape when trying to deliver your project.

Pros

The paycheck arrives on time. Its easy to stay in the middle of the pack, and coast.Working here doesn't require keeping up to date with technology or software industry practices.

Cons

Cigna is risk adverse. There is a strong emphasis on manual processes rather than moving towards modern software development practices. Lastly there is a strong emphasis on "Not in the business of IT." This leads to lots of out of the box purchases, and what development work is done in house is actually off shored to the cheapest bidder. Very few vendor coding resource are actually technically screened with predicable results. "Coding" in this context means a cheap application developer that is not a craftsman and will only code exactly what he is told to code, in the worst possible way. All of this leads to a lack of quality in software applications. This culminates in a lack of a competent IT department which encourages "the business" to rely on manual processes, and the viscous cycle starts over. Lack of accountability in all levels and all roles.
