Pros

The people are what make it worthwhile. Stock options.

Cons

Constant layoffs. Benefits are terrible. No culture to speak of. People disappear almost every day. Company does small layoffs in order to stay under federal government WARN rules.

Pros

No weekends, mandatory holiday time off

Cons

Low morale, toxic work environment. United Clinical Services segment has deployed software (RTAM/ backoffice/energy daa) to record every employee's emails, instant messaging, mouse movements, scrolling, and records numerous screen shots per hour per employee. These recordings are available to managers. Unnecessary micromanaging of skilled professionals. Employees are now communicating via personal cell phones rather than be recorded. Employees can no longer participate in "anonymous" company surveys due to recordings. Such a shame, I have been with UHG for 16 years and I am no longer able to recommend UHG as a decent place of employment.
