Web Developer - Web Developer Concentric Health Experience Employee Review

I really enjoy working at Concentric Life, but I do have some concerns following the acquisition of CLife by Accenture. Since the merger, I’ve started to feel more like a number in a larger pool, which makes it harder to stand out like I used to. The changes in management structure and the various systems can be confusing (Pay, Benefits, Trainings, Meetings, etc.). Now with Accenture, it’s important to keep track of all new credentials, as you never know when they may be required and juggling multiple platforms can be frustrating. That being said, Concentric Life is still a fantastic company with a lot to offer, especially with the remote work opportunities, the strong friendships I’ve formed, and the unique team culture. While there are always ups and downs, as you’d expect in any agency, I would definitely recommend the company for the overall experience and flexibility.

While I enjoy the variety of work and opportunities to learn, there are some challenges that come with the role. Occasionally, late nights are required due to team inefficiencies, which seems to be an overall limited judgement of accountability from the team. Additionally, opportunities for raises and promotions now feel more distant, as Accenture doesn’t seem to have the same frequent employee review cycles that Concentric Life did. There’s also a fair amount of internal team shifts and changes to client accounts, which can sometimes disrupt workflow. New business wins are exciting, but they seem to be few and far between. These factors can make it a bit harder to predict long-term growth and stability. As a result, the previously comfortable and "stable" environment feels a bit more uncomfortable now, & also less motivating under Accenture leadership. I find myself uncertain about advancing, as I’m not sure what the culture of the agency will look like under Accenture’s influence.

Good culture, driven and overall fair

Didn’t get much of a learning experience, my superior never touched base with me
