It's not all flowery praise. I often question, long term, whether it's really healthy for me to continue to work at a place that causes me as much stress as this company has/can.
By far THE WORST health benefits I have had as a working adult in corporate America. We see what is offered in terms of plans. We are not getting a fair deal there, and every single person working there, bottom to top, knows it. UHG has some amazing healthcare plans available - just not for its employees.
There are so many departments with different rules, systems, and procedures that communication and issue resolution between internal business partners is a sad, complicated mess. Things are never streamlined. I do think they try, but they don't succeed.
Everything is about numbers, and at the end of the day, most people care less about if the numbers reflect accurate data, or if the data has simply been collected in a manner which makes it APPEAR that things are on target.
Talent Acquisition is a train wreck. There is up to a six month lag period in some of their systems (which no one will admit to, but is evident). I have been grilled by people on my ability to use MS Outlook (?????) who are just supposed to be validating my responses to the questions I answered online. Look, if I've been exceeding expectations on my performance reviews, I can probably use e-mail. I have had recruiters fail to set up interviews; if there are any issues, often the recruiters do not respond to e-mails, and CC'ing their supervisors doesn't do much either. Well after accepting a new position internally, I was still getting contacted by TA for interviews for positions I had removed myself from, and I was recently contacted to take a survey because they show I am applying for positions currently. (I have not applied for positions in at least five months.)
