Vantaggi
-large company, so if you're well connected internally (and willing to move around Northern CA) there can be good job mobility -good benefits (medical covered up to 50% of fertility up to $15k, which not a lot of people knew about)
Svantaggi
I understand the business imperative but there is a huge focus on cost cutting, even in areas that should be growing/invested in. The business is still squarely stuck on a FFS business model that it can't wean itself off of; meanwhile everything in healthcare in moving the other direction. Lack of commitment of senior leaders to make tough choices that don't align with internal politics. There are a lot of sub-cultures with the numerous affiliates that were bought/integrated over time (e.g. medical groups, foundations, hospitals) that act rogue and don't follow the overall direction. At the ground and middle levels I was happy working there, but as I interacted with higher levels of leadership it became very toxic to work there.
