Pros
- The feeling that I made a difference in the lives of people inside and outside the company. - Under former CEO / CIO great progress in healthcare insurance technology innovation. These ladies rocked. - Virtual company, could work anywhere or chime in for important meetings even on vacation - Loved my work as an IT Manager, and plenty to do
Cons
- I worked in the early morning, broke around dinner, worked at night, sometimes in the night - Politics got flakey with the pressure to compete and deliver during implementation of Healthcare Reform (posturing, positioning, scapegoating, cutting corners, excessive demands on overworked employees that sort of thing) - Healthcare Reform competing with shareholder greed - sometimes to grow you have to invest and play the long game - Limited training budget with high demand for continuous improvement
