Optum Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

They constantly talk about and send us messages about gratitude. Too bad they don't actually feel it for their employees.

The most positive experiance I have had with this company was during COVID. Many with small children home. And when school started, your day was...working, being a teacher, and parent. My manager stated "It's now our time to work for you." "Work when you can and show up for your family first".

Optum encourages interactions, positive peer promotion with kudos programs, and an extensive learning opportunities.

I like how we can pick up where the other left off.

Appreciation with recognition and respect.

Executive leadership needs to walk the talk - they say all the right things but their actions show that they don't really care about anything other than lining their own pockets at the expense of everyone and everything else.
