- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★Featured Review
Pros
The company has been fantastic during the pandemic and understanding their employees needs. They've been transparent about the work from home and return to office procedures setting the expectations that they are putting their employees first and employees should do what's best for themselves and their families
Cons
No cons to speak to now
Continue reading - Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
The people - by far it's the people
Cons
Work/life balance is challenging, staffing and workloads
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Career Growth, Great culture, Thriving ecosystem and a great work life balance
Cons
I don't see any cons with this company
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
A wonderful company dedicated to improving healthcare! As a designer, there are several mentors and growth opportunities available, with an open, honest, and supportive atmosphere. Managers actively prioritize work-life balance. One of the best perks is "flexible Fridays", which is essentially a three-day weekend if you don't have any imminent or outstanding work or deadlines that you need to meet.
Cons
Because of its size and legacy software, big change is often difficult to effect
- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
Work life balance and genuine care for employees. You're not just a number.
Cons
Pay and benefits are not as competitive as they should be.

Cons
No cons to report at this job.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I got to lead projects and have a lot of input into a consumer-facing product. I worked with a great, diverse team and smart people. Work-life balance is great and you can feel done with work for the day at 5.
Cons
I left because I did not see a way of ever getting promoted to senior-level and it was never talked about. I was always told how great I was doing and I got a great performance review score. After I left, someone with less years of experience was promoted to senior-level, so I have zero clue what was going on there. I occasionally burned out because I didn’t have any UX help after two people on the team left and those spots were empty for months. Additionally, I wanted to work 100% remote after reevaluating my life. While I was granted that option for the time being, I was not looking forward to eventually having to be in an office 3 days a week. I left for a role where I might go into the office 3 times a month (or less). There was also memos about losing out on bonuses and raises if you chose to work 100% remote. With inflation, I’d be losing money by staying because I wasn’t sitting in an office doing the same thing I’d be doing at home. Compensation is low. I got a 60% (!!!) raise by leaving.
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★

- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
