Former Employee – worked at UnitedHealth Group

ProsOne of the good paymasters in the industry. Have offices located in Noida, Gurgaon & hydrabad. Good facilities to employees: AC cabs, Food, good office facalities.

ConsGrowth can be a big issue for growth oriented people. Good for those who wants to settle in one organisation without caring much about the growth opportunities.

Advice to Senior ManagementTrust employees who want to do good in life. Allow people to go on sabbatical who wants to develop skill sets.
