Pros

After working at several fortune 500 companies I've spent the past couple years at eHealth getting to learn and grow while tackling meaningful important work. Organizationally, there is lots of growth potential. With recent company changes it has opened the door to innovation and the chance to do good work and made a very rare opportunity to create great design if you have the right mindset. It involves a lot of making a case for doing the right thing which new management thoroughly supports. Speaking of management the C-suite is stocked with decades worth of knowledge and much more accessible than many other companies. Overall the company has good values (making health insurance accessible than all) and seems to create an environment for it's employees to do work AND have a life (which is very rare for the bay area). It's been exciting to see the company's growth (from $7 stock prices to $70) and see the impact your team can make. If it continues on it's path eHealth is on its way to a very bright future.

Cons

Turnover has left certain teams understaffed, although the company has focused on hiring. Organization is in a state of flux which means that processes are still being worked out. Nothing that won't solve itself in time.

Pros

eHealth RevOps offers a fast-paced environment with strong exposure to healthcare operations, commissions, and cross-functional collaboration. The work is meaningful and provides opportunities to build analytical, problem-solving, and process improvement skills. Teams are generally supportive, and there are opportunities to learn from peers with deep industry knowledge. The role provides hands-on experience with complex data, audits, and reconciliation processes, which is valuable for strengthening both operational and financial skill sets.

Cons

Leadership is a significant challenge. The Senior Director’s approach tends to be highly hands-on, which can limit autonomy and make it difficult for employees to feel fully trusted or supported in their roles. The environment can feel high-pressure rather than growth-oriented. At the Senior Manager level, there are concerns around consistency, professionalism, and fairness. Communication style can come across as overly direct or discouraging at times, and there are perceptions of favoritism that impact team morale and overall engagement. There are also gaps in leadership presence and support. 1:1 meetings are frequently canceled, and team members often need to rely on other leaders for guidance. While tracking and reporting are maintained, there is limited hands-on support, coaching, and clear direction for the team. Training is another challenge. Onboarding often relies on current employees who are expected to maintain their full workload, creating a high-pressure environment with little room for error. This makes it difficult for new hires to ramp up effectively and confidently. Overall, these factors can make it challenging for employees to feel supported, develop professionally, and operate with clarity and confidence.
