If you were looking to move internally, what are good departments? What are bad? I heard enterprise COC is one to avoid due to bad leadership at the VP levels. Appreciate any thought

At Carelon, mainly to train or transfer technical knowledge, it may indicate role ambiguity
Stay away fro DPAIO and anything under The Rat!
Keep in mind everybody’s experience. It’s a massive company and there are hundreds of department, no way to understand the nuances and culture with each one. I like to have several people in one team and can vouch for the work experience in the manager, you’re not going to have any way to know what’s good or not.
Most people that I know are extremely unhappy and have similar experiences across business units and departments… you might find better departments at another organization completely. Good luck.
@b7 working for Sales sounds great if you don't want a life - ask around it is not anywhere near a 60 hr week. It is 7 days a week, late nights, travel, stress. Ask around
Worst departments (in my opinion):
1. Agree with OP on Cost of Care has weak leadership and way overstaffed. Feels like a lot of people just passing information around without clear goals, yet they keep hiring.
2. Pretty much anything under CG’s leadership. That whole org (Health Solutions, Network, CoC, Value Based) feels messy with little real growth. That org needs a shake up.
3. Carelon Behavioral Health, no explanation needed. Probably Carelon in general.
Corporate Finance or a solid state health plan team might be a better bet.
LPAC
Good Luck with that.
IT in India. Always a celebration on LinkedIn and there is a holiday every other week.
Look for something in sales and marketing for large client accounts. Mostly involves keeping them happy and retention. They generally operate pretty tight and keep RIF’s low. Some actually have team member counts and positions in their contracts.
I have no direct experience with FEP, but I have heard they are one of the better areas to work in. Anyone else with direct exposure, feel free to share. I am looking to make a move this year as well.
The best job has to be a manager
Stay away from GBD Encounters. Clicky bunch of je-ks.
Contractors always seem happy.
