Pros

If you want to maintain a balanced, healthy, mental, lifestyle, do not work at Optum Health. The work load is overwhelming and you'll never reach goals. Micromanaging is at it's finest and taking a lunch break is a luxury. Management cares only about the numbers. The. morale is very low and management is totally disorganized. Upper management is horrible. You can't keep up with the up to the daily and up to the minute changes if you tried. If you want to work in an extremely toxic environment, work late every day, this is the place for you.

Cons

1. Micromanagement 2. High work load 3. Disorganized 4. No room for growth 5. Low Morale 6. High turnover 7. Burn out is inevitable
