Question about anthem benefits and waiting periods

It looks like anthem has some benefits that they did not have in the past. I see that they now have parental leave. Do you have to work for the company for a certain amount of time to be eligible for parental leave?

If you're not already looking for a new job, start NOW

Don't sit around until these creeps decide to boot you out like some drunk in a bar at 2am. Find something else and walk out of this landfill on your own two feet and on your own terms so you can hang on to your dignity and self respect.

Anthem is not a nice company to work for.

I worked for Empire Blue Cross & Blue Shield which became Anthem in 2004 for 21 years. In 2012 ten people were laid off nine of which had over 20 years. Anthem is a terrible company to work for, they have no regard for seniority, don't want you... — read more

Anthem denies reasonable accomodations

Whomever said Anthem is getting uglier is right. I am disabled and I am being denied a reasonable accommodation which is a violation of IDEA. They discriminate and are leaving me out to dry.

Anthem is not what it used to be

If you can, stay away from Anthem. People get laid off on yearly bases, and you are expected to pick up the slack, with no compensation. My caseload keeps increasing, my pay stays the same, and I don't even get paid for overtime, which is necessary... — read more 

Anthem, never stable and becoming uglier

My #1 complaint about Anthem is layoffs, they happen all the time and at least one time every year. Some groups have mulitiple layoffs, so it's hard to have any stability when you know you may be laid off. Also, I do not know why we do constant... — read more

Denying Unemployment Benefits

Anthem has not only let good, long term employees go, they are also denying unemployment benefits in mulitiple states, even though they said they wouldn't deny those benefits. It's dishonest and completely insane.

Merger back on

Soon after Swedish visit to White House http://www.healthcaredive.com/news/cigna-reverses-course-says-anthem-merger-should-be-approved/437374/
