A building with potential

Pros

The benefits are great and the culture at Optum is good (if you're in the right building)

Cons

The building I am in (HME and Pharmacy) has TERRIBLE upper management that has no idea how to manage people in the slightest. Way too much micromanaging and distrust of the employees for anyone to feel comfortable. The work environment has made people feel like they are next on the chopping block, so they better look to get out before they are shown the door.

Pros

Flexibility in being able to work from home

Cons

Executives are not truthful in what they are telling employees. Town halls are held quarterly, but nothing really is said during those presentations. Company really only cares about profit, not people like they say. To many layoffs as company tries to reinvent itself every 2 - 3 years.
