Vantaggi
Having trouble with this question. The option to telecommute was nice. Better than dealing with the parking situation at the office. Had a lot of office parties in San Antonio for hourly employees in an attempt to boost morale.
Svantaggi
It was a stressful environment. Most conference-call happy organization I have ever seen. How did anyone get any work done at this company when they were always on the phone? Demanded a lot of travel, yet were very tight with expenses. Technology was not as advertised when I was interviewed. Integration of Benefit Planners, Wassau, & Keenan units was poor leading to problems with communication and service. They didn't appear to have the financial strength to compete with the bigger players. Minimal marketing investment. No charitable giving or promotions to increase name recognition while I was there. Better that the Health Unit was sold to UNH.
