Pros

A large stable employer that is over 100 years old and headquartered in rural PA. Too big to fail.

Cons

The workforce is apathetic and there is dead wood among the ranks which makes it an unpleasant place to work. Motivated and highly capable employees leave but the mediocre stay because there is little other job opportunity for them in the area. Flu vaccines are mandatory for all employees even if they work fulltime from their homes. There is focus on the appearance of compliance with all sorts of rules. The rules are violated all of the time, but those that are capable of even seeing that know better than to say anything. Management makes very clear the range of acceptable opinion about everything.

Pros

Worked fully remote which worked for me. Great health benefits. Worked for health plan not clinical.

Cons

Limited opportunities for growth without a college degree. Typical corporate where they cut resources and make big demands. Many long time employees which I thought was a pro at first, but realized they are stuck in old ways and don’t really want to hear a fresh new perspective or even spend time developing new people. As someone with ambition and interest in contributing, I felt stuck, limited, and bored.
