Pros

This company is incredible. Growing exponentially. Feels like a small company that is growing quickly. Cafeteria is like a restaurant. Health, Dental, and Vision coverage is very affordable. There is also a free clinic for employees and family. Salary competitive. Work like balance is good. I have worked in other managed care companies and this is the best one to work for and that provides quality to their members. There is a great opportunity for advancement since this company is growing so quickly, especially for those that live in St. Louis. I have heard only good things about Michael Neidorff, the CEO.

Cons

Would prefer PTO instead of vacation, personal days, and sick time so the employees that do not take sick time can use that for time off. Most other companies offer PTO and more days off.
