Pros

Professional salaries are generally at competitive market rates for the health care industry. This is an ESOP and the company provides a 4% match in company stock, taking place of the 4% match to the 401K. They also provide a decent wellness program.

Cons

Health insurance plans are low quality/high deductible and the premiums increase each year. PTO was also recently cut back because management determined that they could not be competitive on contract bids because their overhead costs were too high. Sick leave was taken away, replaced by disability insurance which pays only a fraction of your salary while you are away (around 60%). Management is so out of touch that they recently introduced a "sabbatical program" - but instead of giving you time OFF from work (which is the IDEA of a sabbatical) they want you to use this time to innovate and provide new business ideas to generate revenue. Many staff I have spoken to are frustrated because of the fact that the company preaches innovation and wants it's employees to constantly be working on RFPs to generate new business. Staff can barely keep up with the current workload on existing contracts, and yet they are poked and prodded to generate new business. The whole climate at Telligen is solely based on two ideas - REVENUE and SHARE PRICE. Because of this ridiculous obsession, product quality has really taken a back seat and is why my outlook is low for the future.

There are no pros for this company.

Cons

If you are NOT white, DO NOT even think about applying for a position at the Ridgeland, Mississippi location!!! I applied for a job at Telligen and when I submitted my application, they asked me a few questions to "get to know me." One of the questions was about my race, which is normal for a company to ask whenever you apply. Understandable. I selected the racial group that I identify with and waited to hear back from the company regarding an interview. A couple days later, they company sent me an email with a link regarding my background. The link took me to a page that asked me the SAME questions again regarding my race! Why would they need to ask me that AGAIN? There were SO many other questions to ask me regarding the position itself, but somehow, they are ONLY concerned with my race. They never asked me my interest in the position, recent successes that would be congruent to the position, or anything else regarding the job at Telligen. It's very disappointing because I know about the people that live in Ridgeland, MS. I know how racist they can be and how they love to distance their self from people that do not look like them. To the person reading this review: If you are NOT-white, do not bother applying for a position at the Ridgeland, MS location. You will save yourself from working in a racist/prejudice environment where people judge you based on the color of your skin and the stereotypes associated with it. Save your time, keep your peace, and apply to somewhere else instead!
