Pros

Pay rate is better here on the corporate side in comparison to mid-level agencies. The name "Cigna" on your resume is reputable and familiar. If hired full-time, take advantage of Cigna's CRG (Colleague Resource Groups), this can help introduce new colleagues and resources to become fully engaged at the company. Cigna's CEO, David Cordani, seems like a genuine leader. He's inspiring. Cigna is a fast-paced environment, and they utilize latest marketing and sales tools in the industry. The brand image of Cigna seen in its current advertising campaigns is looking bold and better from years past.

Cons

Lack of a dynamic, young professional workforce probably due to corporate politics and inexperienced mid-level managers. Lack of professional development for employees. From my experience and what I saw on my team, the mandated Development Action Plan (professional development plan) is somewhat of a joke. Manager never kept professional development meetings. Seems like senior manager wanted to move quickly to the top of the ladder and became too busy for lower level direct reports. If you're looking for a technology advanced and innovative company, this may not be the place for you. If you want your ideas heard and supportive management, corporate politics makes this very challenging.

Pros

I was based at Cigna’s Bloomfield headquarters and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I had the opportunity to work alongside exceptionally smart, action-oriented colleagues and business partners who were knowledgeable, responsive, and dependable. People knew their subject matter, provided direct answers, and consistently followed through on their commitments. The organization was highly professional, well-managed, and organized. The Wilde Building had a positive, forward-thinking energy that made it an enjoyable place to work. The cafeteria offered excellent food options, and the views overlooking Gillette Ridge Golf Club were a nice bonus. 30% annual bonus was greatly appreciated. Finally, I personally believed in the leadership of the CEO and the entire ELT.

Cons

During my two years with the company, I reported to three different managers, which created instability. One manager, in particular, created significant challenges for both the broader team and me. Multiple team members raised concerns with Human Resources, but no action was taken. The company also regularly conducts smaller-scale workforce reductions and position eliminations. These actions can occur across various departments and at different times, which creates uncertainty among employees. Because these reductions are small, they don't trigger a WARN Act or receive media attention. As a result, employees feel a heightened sense of job insecurity regarding future organizational changes.
