Avantages
Rating is given towards what Rally Health was, as opposed to its current state as Optum Digital (or whatever they're calling themselves now). - Rally had incredibly smart people who were great to work with, and there were plenty of opportunities for career growth if you made the effort to connect with people. - The product had a practical purpose which made it easier for me to find fulfillment in my work. - Office space was great while we had it. - Swag (backpacks, t-shirts, etc.) doesn't hurt either.
Inconvénients
- Layoffs became a shadow that hang over the remaining employees; there's always a threat that they can be put on the table at any time. For those that survive all these layoffs, the Rally-focused employees' essentially are just keeping the lights on for the product at this point. - My managers were all very supportive while we were still under the Rally banner, but after the org restructuring from moving into the Optum organization, I had no idea who my manager was supposed to be. I figured it could have been one of three different people, but none of them had any idea what I did on a day-to-day basis anymore. - Due to a lot of turnover from the Optum integration, my responsibilities ended up well above my pay grade, but I didn't mind it because I appreciated the challenge. When I spoke to management about a potential raise/promotion to accurately reflect the work I had put in, I was told that it wasn't possible and I needed to wait for a full year to bring it back up. - Raises/bonuses were solid at Rally, but once the move was made to Optum, they became laughable (actual word used by the person who conducted my yearly review) in a bad way. Not a good adjective to use for merit-based compensation, especially for a company that reported $24 billion in operational earnings for the year in question.
