Pros

Good Salary, Nice Benefits. The Co-workers are excellent and are very helpful. As a subsidiary of Blue Cross, it's well known and well regarded.

Cons

Poor Management, Inadequate management. The management have no knowledge of a success criteria and cannot define it. The pricing of all the work is too high. There is no knowledge of any product creation. They are selling cloud services and DO NOT have FEDRAMP classification. They double burden their pricing. They buy services from Blue Cross and there is a markup by BCBSSC, then CDS, a subsidiary of BCBSSC also marks it up. All of their business is at risk since CMS has decided to use Amazon, which is priced at about 10% of the cost of CDS and provides a higher level of service.

Pros

The people I worked with were like family. The type that stab you in the back.

Cons

CEO is a joke and not a positive leader. Her COO has a napoleon complex therefore does not know how to handle working with strong, confident people so he leads like a bully. The work environment was extremely stressful. There were times i had to dumb down emails for the COO to understand, which he prefers pictures because he doesn't read. Quick to judge and makes emotional judgment calls. Fired quality individuals that contributed and were truly value adds and had great relationships with customers. People will stab you in the back and sleep their way to the top. 1st line of Management is afraid to take a stand for fear of losing their jobs even though they know what's right. To many chiefs and they all lead by intimidation CEO, COO and Directors all micro manage.
