Pros

You are not micro managed. Benefits are cheap and good. You get sick time and paid time off.

Cons

Very unorganized. System issues all the time metric is NOT tried and true. Lots of room for improvement no polices and procedures people make things up as they go along.

Pros

Well coordinated/run organization, especially core infrastructure, compensation and benefits administration, and other back-office logistics. Onsite clinic, great cafeteria, covered parking, numerous lunch and coffee options within walking distance (Clayton, MO location). Plenty of community engagement opportunities across a diverse portfolio of social and economic advocacy groups.

Cons

Public perception in the local community is sometimes negative, or flat/unknown. Since they are not a household name in product (like an AB, Panera, or Build-A-Bear), their only headline news items are usually negative, and centered around real-estate transactions that affect the immediate local citizens (such as parking, traffic, and building codes/strategies). Not necessarily a 'con' on the company's perspective, but more of a reality of not having a household product that the local citizens support and reference every day. While the organization is well run, especially on the back-office logistics, they are not terribly progressive in formal work-from-home flexibility (note: formal). Individual managers remain flexible to retain talent, and work within the confines of policies and directives, but individual experiences will vary. Also helps if you perform, as with any situation, and you'll find yourself in a better situation for flexibility as needed.

Pros

PTO, benefits, and coworkers. Working in the Medicaid field helping others.

Cons

Hours are always changing due to job needs as they are contracted by the state. Turnover is constant. If you are a top performer they will try to find ways to prevent promotion to other areas so they can keep you in their department. Director looks at everyone as expendable.
