Pros

Compensation: Salary is acceptable and fair. Work-Life Balance: Generally stable and OK; standard working hours are respected. Good office location and supportive peer-level colleagues.

Cons

Management quality is highly variable and entirely dependent on which department you join. While there were some truly excellent leaders here—some of whom were unfortunately affected by organizational realignments—there are also highly directive, hands-on management styles that you may want to avoid. In certain areas, leadership can be resistant to taking ownership or incorporating peer feedback. If you are uncomfortable navigating ego-driven environments, I strongly recommend doing thorough research and backchanneling before applying to your specific target department.

Pros

PBC fosters a team environment and inclusivity. There is flexibility and a great work life balance. There is a flow of communication between management and the employees

Cons

There is not many cons. Training is hard when working from home and no set process. Not sure what going back to the office would look like

Thank you for highlighting our collaborative and inclusive environment. The pandemic has prompted Pacific Blue Cross to adapt to a new temporary normal of remote work for many positions, which includes the tradeoffs of shifting training from in person to virtual delivery. We are taking a cautious approach to returning to work at the office as the health and safety of our staff is our top priority.

Pros

a good place to work, very caring environment, supportive of team mates,

Cons

the way they determine holiday time based on seniority does not work for employees with families. Don't expect summer holidays unless you have been there for a long time.
