Pros

They have good pay here The culinary team rocks

Cons

If there was ever a company with bureaucratic red tape and technical debt this is the one. I spend very little time coding and most of my time in meetings, making/reviewing designs and trying to make my way through the extremely complex system in place. Additionally, they won't let you work remotely. All employees must live in the Madison area. This is becoming an industry standard and the company is bleeding talent due to other companies being willing to offer remote work. It's hard to empathize with management's iron fist on this policy.

Pros

Impact: You are part of creating systemic level change for healthcare organizations. You get to be on site and work directly with providers and see how these changes impact their communities. People: Extremely smart and capable. I feel like I can rely on my team in a way I haven't at previous employers. New hires are entry level, so there's a strong community for people in a similar stage of life. Culture: Quirky but in a real, unique way. People are collaborative and celebrate shared accomplishments. The campus enshrines a very specific (and fun!) vibe. Location: Madison is awesome. Benefits: The health insurance is unparalleled. Sabbatical is a super cool perk too. Growth: A lot of autonomy and responsibility allows people to rise to the challenge. Stability: Solid industry, no lay-offs.

Cons

Remote work flexibility: 5 days a year
