Current Employee – been working at Coventry Health Care full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Great opportunity in other departments. Pay is above average, not great. Benifits are good.

Cons – Pbm has ethical, moral and just juvinile practices. C-spire had issues with a person telling everyones business to other associates. Management ended up just quitting and moving on to another job. Supervisors in this department bring unhealth lifestyles to work and just do not know how to treat employees. They like to taunt and basically scream behind closed doors when no one can intervene. Thankfully supervisors have been shipped to another department where this will not be tolerated. Avoid gb department with a passion.

Advice to Senior Management – Please listen, or have meetings with multiple managers, and ask employees to be honest about working conditons. Maybe invite corporate human resources to attend meetings, mind you, corporate.

Current Employee – been working at Coventry Health Care full-time

Pros – benefits ok, pay ok, co workers great

Cons – It is deplorable that this type of behavior is allowed to go on, in this day and age. Fear is running rampant throughout the department. We cant go over their heads, because the chief clinical supervisor is the friend of the direct supervisor who is friends of the FEW bully supervisors of the particular groups. This type of behavior is also expressed in meetings in various monthly meetings....from par to crc to cm. These are not good working conditions for any employee. Employees don't know if they can talk to the lawyers at Coventry, EAP , for fear of backslash.

Advice to Senior Management – We wish there was a way that Coventry ceos and Aetna ceos could really see what is happening here at the san antono office. Please help the pars, crcs, cms. We work extreemly hard....everyday. We are asking for your help. Note*the vp of san Antonio office is one of the best vp we have ever met. He is very uplifting...and encouraging. Hopefully this problem can be fixed at a lower level.

Current Employee – been working at Coventry Health Care full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – Tutition Assistance Program (5K per yr)
Bonus program (3% of your yearly salary if certain criteria's are met).
My management is supportive

Cons – Small merit increases, but I guess something is better than nothing.
Large work load, often understaffed
For entry level jobs if you don't meet your production/quality standards your a gonner and management seems to make your life bad
I have found I did not enjoy myself here when I was an entry level employees but when I became a supervisor overnight management was so much nicer and work became easier. This is great for me, however; not as much for entry level jobs. This will vary based upon the position you are applying for and who the management team is.

Really nothing great to say about the company but nothing really bad either. Its just OK.
