Pros

Don't get me wrong, there are some great people in leadership positions at the company, and they have been great mentors to me. There are many people there that are very smart, dedicated, and extremely hardworking.

Cons

People don't get compensated properly, there's tremendous disparity in how people get paid, I've seen it as a manager, and tried very hard to correct it, but the company just doesn't have the money to bring underpaid employees up to market value, so if you're at WebMD and feel that you're underpaid, you probably are and shouldn't hold your breath. Sales people sell things to clients without making sure the infrastructure exists to properly implement because they're so afraid of losing the business, and then when the implementation goes wrong, the implementation teams are to blame. HR doesn't care about the employees. They're extremely inflexible and are basically afraid that giving an inch will lead to litigation down the road. It wasn't always like this...
