Women's Job Satisfaction (5=very satisfied)
January 1970
I have worked here 2 years and there are a lot of women and a lot in management. Seems to have great work life balance at first and then gets more demanding with less flexibility the longer you are here, no matter how well you do your job. Having small children and being a working mother requires some flexibility on all parts and that is changing.

Not to try to learn and figure out everything in a few weeks, it takes years and we are still learning each and every day.

I would ask co-workers what to expect prior to accepting a position and perhaps even do it as part of the interview. Aetna encourages training and education and their benefits are excellent but I found that my job was nothing like my job description and what I interviewed for - and what I was told in the interview regarding work from home opportunities were never a reality. Also, there were mandatory meetings on Thanksgiving and Christmas days as some of our foreign partners did not celebrate those holidays. Check it all out first.

Maybe. It makes a huge difference who your manager is; many departments allow work at home, but many don't. HR policies are largely at the manager's discretion

My advice to myself, would be, You got this! Women are a very big part of this company. I have no other comment but in my dept. everyone is treated the same.

Honey, the politics are so vicious because the stakes are so low. Do not delude yourself about a "noble cause". There is no nobility here. Sadly, Health care is all about greed- doctors' greed, hospitals' greed, insurance greed, consultants greed, vendor greed.... So, do what you can and do not work twice as hard, or sacrifice the real life you have 'cause the good old/young guys will never really let you in. And, do not get seduced into attacking or otherwise growing at others' expense. Be kind.

Liberal work at home policy makes it easier to balance work/family. Recent policy changes substantially reduce the cost of health benefits for lower wage earners.
