Pros

Good initial base pay. Also provides stipend for phone use.

Cons

Their onboarding training does not compare to other PBMs. Benefits are expensive and their 401K matching incentive is misleading. They do not fully match 6% employment contribution as they advertise. Work life balance is non-existent. You're expected to be available and working 10-12 hours per day.

Pros

allow remote work, regular paycheck... nothing else

Cons

- goals are changing constantly and on review you can find out you had to work on something that was never communicated to you before - they talked so much about "Abarca's" value and expect you just work for them, not for a paycheck - VP level management (it's a small company) have no their own opinion - they all "yes, man" and their noses are brown - They have flexible "unlimited" PTO, but in reality it's very limited and hard to get - The management is getting angry if you say something that is not in line with their vision; basically, you do not expect to bring ideas/suggestions. - The benefits are really bad - bad insurance, bad 401k, bad dental...
