If you could make changes, how would you improve the culture at Blue Shield of California?
Management needs to put themselves on the floor once in a while. Quit setting expectations that are completely unrealistic. They set staffing, production and quality without even knowing how to do the job then punish front line staff for not meeting those goals.

Make management understand that cutting jobs and sending overseas, then being greatly understaffed during peak times (while fixing the overseas vendor errors at the same time) makes for a very unhappy place to work
