Kaiser Foundation Health Plan Reviews
-
Pros
KP has good pay, generous time off and benefits and advanced resources, equipment, etc. Training support for new hires is good. Opportunity for advancement varies depending upon department.
Cons
Middle management is stretched too thin. High stress level and difficult to really take time off. Salary compression for long term employees. Union environment makes management challenging, and union staff have some better benefits than management and pay is too close to management, i.e., I had staff reporting to me that made $0.05 less than me and pay nothing for medical benefits, where I pay $340/month.
Advice to Senior Management
Add support for middle management or re-structure and improve compensation package.
