Pros
Working at SCAN has been some of the most meaningful and growth-stretching work of my career. There is a clear and compelling mission to improve the healthcare experience for seniors, and many leaders and employees are deeply committed to doing what is right for members. Because SCAN is not driven by shareholder pressure, the organization is able to move quickly, challenge the status quo, and make decisions grounded in impact rather than optics. You are given the opportunity to partner closely with the business, influence change, and contribute in a real way to something that is actively evolving. Working at SCAN has genuinely changed my career and made me a better leader. There is a strong culture of collaboration and space for innovation, which pushes you to grow, think differently, and show up at a higher level.
Cons
SCAN is not perfect. We are growing quickly, which means we are building in real time and constantly pushing ourselves and each other to be better. The pace and level of change can be challenging, and not everyone is comfortable operating in that kind of environment. This is a high-expectation culture. The work requires you to think critically, operate both strategically and executionally, and bring a point of view even when things are not fully defined. You are expected to influence, navigate complexity, and take ownership in real time. For some, this can feel intense. For others, it is what creates the opportunity to grow, stretch, and have meaningful impact.
