Pros

Dwindling as we speak. Still some smart people left who haven't cashed out yet. People play magic.

Cons

The company was acquired by United Healthcare, which saw their stock rise after opting out of Obamacare. Nothing about this company is remotely mission driven. The best benefit that Rally offered was their free healthcare and after the first year of being acquired by a health insurance company, is losing that benefit. Don't be fooled into thinking there is a mission here, it's all about the bottom line. Sales oversells, then engineering has to work through the holidays in order to deliver. Speak to anyone that has been here for more than 2 years and everyone says they no longer look forward to the holidays because they know they'll have to work through them. If anyone still believes in the mission, then they either have a lot of stock on the table or downed a lot of Kool aid. The company's compensation and benefits aren't remotely competitive and with the dwindling benefits and culture, there is nothing attractive about working here. Overall the company has a very toxic environment. Leadership is a an amalgam of people who don't know what they're doing or people who are only worried about themselves and craps on everyone else below them. Last to help the people who report to them but first to respond to a mass email to take credit for things they had nothing to do with. Don't expect to get very far here unless you enjoy sucking up. What everyone else said about being in QA and being a woman in this company is true. If you are interested or QA, run away, it's not worth it. There are better places with far more competent QA departments you can join out there and places where they treat women with respect. The expectations for QA leadership is so low, typing with all ten fingers would be considered a feat for them. The development environments are also a dumpster fire. Nothing is ever working and everyone is constantly trying to debug unstable environments instead of getting actually work done. A company as large as this with as much funding as UHG should be able to get their act together but employee job satisfaction is just not high on their priority list.

I guess I should start by thanking you for writing this review, although I must admit candidly that the picture painted here is so far removed from my own daily experience or that of the people with whom I interact that a thank you feels trite. I will say that I am sorry that this is your experience and I can assure you that your colleagues here, whether in leadership roles or not, are committed to creating an experience whereby each one of us is inspired to do our very best work, everyday. I hope that we are promoting people who know what they are doing, and appreciate your advice. I can only ask that if your experience is still poor, you'll come speak with me and give me a chance to drive improvements.
