Pros

* 23 PTO days to start (29 after 10 years) * Some flexibility to work remotely (on my team, at least) * Work/life balance is good (regular 9-5 hours, at least on my team) * Great 401(k) matching program * Emphasis on promotion from within

Cons

* Health coverage plan is extremely poor (high-deductible, although there is an HSA matching contribution plan) * Raises are extremely rare (i.e. factoring in inflation, the longer you work here, the less you make) * Promotions seem few and far between * Siloed departments and functional areas (very little integration; sense of separateness even at the same location) * Many managers lack competency for their levels (they were promoted from call rep positions during Humana's growth in the past 10 years) * Diversity is limited (given lip service but not much more) * Gym is NOT free and has very limited hours * Cafeteria is expensive and of mediocre quality

Pros

Working from home, that’s about it.

Cons

Micromanaging, forced to help team members while you’re behind on your own caseload. Denied PTO requests, no PTO all summer and no PTO until the end of January 2027 (that’s supposed supposedly when they will be done ramping up with all their new employees.) a bunch of meetings weekly that are pointless. A weekly case conference where they are forcing nurses to present a complex case in front of over 300 people on zoom. Process changes change constantly, there are no job aid or guideline that help you make a Clinical decision but you will get out of it if you do it incorrectly. Save yourself the trouble and apply somewhere else. It is not worth it.
