Pros

The culture is one of innovation; respect and goodwill for others; and attention to detail befitting a highly-regulated industry. I work with smart people on innovations to make health care better. Software process maturity: #1 in Tiobe TICS survey. Good tooling: GitHub, ReSharper, CloudBees CI/CD

Cons

It's not a move-fast-and-break-things culture, which might be frustrating to some. Lots of regulatory-compliance needs, pretty heavy process to commit a PR.

Pros

Talented colleagues, very flexible accommodations for employees (work from home), decent compensation. A definite change in pace and mission for a software engineer, when he/she is working on software in the healthcare space

Cons

Health benefits! Ridiculous out of pocket expenses before insurance kicks in. Facilities are kind of old, but there are some signs they're trying to modernize, albeit slowly.

First of all, great to hear from a long-time employee such as yourself. Working with us for more than 8 years makes you a great contribution to our company and we appreciate you taking the time to gives us your feedback here on Glassdoor. Very good to hear that you’re working with talented colleagues, we’re always trying to bring bright people to our company and it’s great to hear this confirmation from one of our employees. Although our remuneration packages match those of other global industry leaders and we conduct regular analysis to ensure we offer our employees a wide and competitive range of benefits, we would have loved to hear otherwise concerning the health benefits. Our ‘Workplace Innovation program’ and global employee flexibility policy were designed to facilitate strong work-life balance for our people so it might be a good thing to have a chat with your HR representative concerning these topics. We’re celebrating our 125th birthday this year and we’re very proud of our heritage. Transforming a company such as ours can take time, we want to make sure we want to do it the right way. We’re happy to hear that these changes are already visible to you and we hope that, just like your career with us, this will bring great opportunities for our future together.
