Nice place to work but the insurance is horrible - Project Manager Mercer University Employee Review

Pros

The people are nice and the culture is great

Cons

The insurance and the management of the insurance plan is horrible. Unless you are going for your once a year regularly scheduled check up be prepared to pay $700 dollars out of pocket for any nonemergency care. Even if you go to a standard check up if your Dr orders something that isn't considered part of the standard testing be prepared to pay even if it is in network. The dental plan is not worth it and isn't straight forward. The medical isn't required to meet the ACA requirements so don't expect the usual. Also the plan is privately run so while the staff is nice and answers the phone some times they just don't know the answer, the websites are glitchy and it can 6 months+ from them to process payment. So don't be surprised if you receive a bill from a provider 6 months later.
