Pros

Most of the people who have been there for more than 10 years - outstanding individuals! Salaries are fair, as are benefits.

Cons

Senior management is very focused on bottom line. Growing people is not a priority. Morale is low and getting lower.

Insurance ideology: don't get sick or defer costs until they change jobs!

Pros

I guess the company pays us on time which is nice. The employee HR portal "website" is OK for the most part as well.

Cons

Even the most expensive insurance plan is horrible! The company doesn't care to help people get better at all, they try to blame it on aetna but in reality THEY decide what features to offer on the insurance plan and THEY are only worried about the bottom line. No doubt Aetna encourages their thinking but it really is a travesty! The insurance is a sham! Never experienced such an annoying and/or blatantly fraudulent plan that says one thing then catches you in some fine print later on. I hope you don't get sick or actually want to improve upon your life to get healthier as TriNet and Aetna will let you down miserably!!
