Premera Blue Cross Reviews

Pros

I really enjoyed the positive family culture at Premera. Every day that I worked there, I knew I was a part of a team that truly valued our clients and our relationships with each other. Premera has a strong family culture and constantly strives to improve their customer support, making the patient first priority with every new initiative.

Pros

Overall company atmosphere and moral are great! Under the new leadership of Jeff Roe the company has clear guidelines and is communicating with all employee levels. Pay is competitive, benefits including pension, 401k match, time off are all competitive with other companies in the area. Growth is really fed within the organization.

Advice to Management

Keep working on making Premera a destination employer, communicating with all employees and focusing on employees success stories and how they make our member's lives better.

Pros

The company is very customer focused and the benefits are great

Pros

Pay and compensations are good.

Pros

Good compensation package: salary, 401(k), bonus, pension.

Pros

Work from home capability, however $40.00 a month stipend when my phone and internet bill is $150 per month with no cable. also has never increased even though my bills do every year.

Advice to Management

Make your employees feel valued. Instead of continuing to reduce our benefits, increase them. Kiazer reps start at 47,000 a year, I have been a loyal employee for five years and I don't make that. This position is extremely unhealthy, big 5 starting at 46,000 and is a much more active and healthy option. This is the most unhealthy position, high stress position and the pay and benefits do not compensate accordingly. Find ways to help your employees to be healthy and happy and allow them the off phone time needed to participate in these benefits. This would reduce the high turn over reducing the cost in traning new employees.

Pros

easy commute, free parking, employee appreciation events

Advice to Management

manage DOWN; not UP. Develop a better BS meter.

Pros

Culture Work-Life Balance People Campus activities Mentorship available

Pros

Great work life balance, Progressive Culture, Strong Purpose & Values

Advice to Management

Develop stronger TL's and Managers. Executive Leadership promotes great values and a strong sense of purpose but the company strongly lacks leaders who drive for excellence & can execute those values and purpose, instead middle management appears to be made up of micromanagers who use manipulation & scare tactics to "lead" their teams.

Pros

Has allowed growing opportunities, have some good colleagues.
