Compliance is NOT Security

Pros

They are growing... That's really all I can say.

Cons

This company SUCKS for someone who cares so much about their craft and work... POOR management and direction from the CEO down. They call themselves and IT company that does medical insurance. What does that even mean? Well, I can tell you it's only a ploy to increase stock value to shareholders. They do not develop or produce any software or hardware or provide professional services for resale. It would be similar to Chase Bank saying they're an IT company that does banking. They truly only care about compliance and not security which means they have a completely fractured security environment with various tools that do not receive proper care and feeding. This also means fractured security teams with defined roles being extremely vague... They also do not care much or at all to train their staff on the currently used security stack/tools. In other words, if you're an analyst, engineer or architect and are given a tool and need to be the SME DO NOT expect training. To be fair, maybe this is all because they've grown incredibly fast. As to benefits it's nothing to droll over. I've had cheaper and better coverage at other companies. This I find strange as this is a HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANY! Their 401k is vested after 4 years and is matched to 3%. Not much to be desired honestly. They offer a 5% discount on purchasing stock... This is incredibly lame as most companies I'm familiar with is at least 15%. They do offer bonuses which seem decent, usually 6%. That said, if you are part of the company they acquire DO NOT expect a bonus when you get rolled into their HR fully. The list can honestly go on and on IMO. Management infighting. A "do as I say" not "do as I do" type of management environment... Very condescending management across departments. I've seen managers and VP's come in and literally yell at individuals.
