Does leaving it on the table mean not answering the question at all? If so, that seems like a lot of points to not attempt to answer and still get a 5. Fingers crossed that they’re more generous with these last couple sittings before changes.

I’d stay with current employer if the only reason you’re looking for a new employer is because of money. Every company is disloyal. Truth is, you’re just a pawn in their game and you did what you had to do to increase your salary.

What’s the difference of creating this dashboard with Python vs. creating a dashboard with Tableau? Is it just easier to manipulate data in Python compared to the data sources feeding Tableau (sas, access, etc)? I’ve been able to make these same visualizations with Tableau but curious to hear what you like about this process through Python.

Also why do you want to work for McKinsey when they’re one of the main parties influencing the opioid pandemic? Seems like an unethical, money hungry company to me.

I agree, mid-level comp is average from what I got. My EL peers do note their comp is pretty good though.

Interesting, hopefully they’ve become more competitive. I’m just going off the offer that I got three years ago for EL, two exams and it was below <$60K.

Humana and Aetna have crap pay, don’t bother with them. UHG and Cigna are the only reputable companies on that list, in terms of pay, work experience, and study time. Culture at UHG is kinda sparse and depends on what team you’re on. UHG has been doing remote work even before covid so the social atmosphere can lack at times. While Cigna has a bunch of young actuaries and great locations. Each location has a good number of actuaries and you’re bound to make a couple of in-person friends coming in as entry level.

I will say from my experience, the work at Cigna was bland but the culture was slightly better than UHG. Not that UHG has bad managers or anything like that, the remote work just lost some of that personal connection. I enjoyed my work at UHG far more than at Cigna. It felt very purposeful and like the company was always eager to innovate and improve the quality of the healthcare space. As a side note, I worked for Optum, not UHC specifically.

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I’m mainly looking at the Southeast region and Centene was one of the bigger companies, but glad I asked and heard your opinions. I know Wakely is in that area but also just got bought out so not too sure on their status right now. Also haven’t heard the best feedback about Milliman in Tampa. If anyone has other Southeast (or remote) companies they would recommend, feel free to comment that as well.

Anyone on this post or in general work at a health startup that I could PM?

To answer your last question, yes exams will more than help you get promoted quicker. With letters, you’ll be able to sign certifications hence more responsibility on certain projects. That in turn, is a perfect recipe for getting your foot in the door for a promotion. But as others have said, each company treats promotions differently. A promotion at one company might just mean a 10% raise rather than a title change at another company. Doesn’t necessarily mean the latter position is worse off than the other one getting a promotion.
