Pros

valuable opportunity to impact the lives of those who need it the most, those suffering from chronic diseases and complications

Cons

the company really moves around leadership people into positions which they are not competent in, believing that because they're 'smart' that they can do anything...would be nice to go outside to get experts when the home grown folks don't really have the skillsets to perform on the vp/president level

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
