Picis Review
|
|
The salary was very good but was most likely why I was laid off.
|
Unbelievable backstabbing.
Gossipy managers.
Very old product.
No new sales.

Great company to work.

Privatr Life balance.
Good salaries.

There is not tech innovation. Build old apps as the same way as 10 years ago.

Great Before Sellout

Was a great place to work with dedicated and motivated colleagues.

Company sold to Harris. Penny pinchers cut veteran workers to save money.

Focus...at last
|
|
After a rather turbulent period with Optum / UHG, Harris has brought a much needed focus to Picis.
Good things:
-We are still called Picis...good call from Harris as that was about to change
-Everyone is given sight of company goals and strategy
-Prof. service charges etc. have been increased so the client may feel that, but these are in line with standard practices and are realistic. Should have been done ages ago...this will help Picis deliver better solutions for our clients.
-Harris business model is strong
-Close relationships with clients is encouraged which can only be good.
-Drive to develop new products which is quite exciting.
-Picis is recruiting
|
-Still taking a long time to bring existing products up to date, it is happening though.
-Some of the staff let go by Harris initially were good people with good skills and sometimes there is a hole when those skills are required.

Best Acquisition for ED PulseCheck
|
|
Since the acquisition of ED PulseCheck to Harris we are on a roll. Everything about Harris Computer Systems screams " build your business unit to the highest" Take control and watch it grow. Executive Management within Harris is the best I have ever worked with in my time here which is ALOT of years. I have been through every acquisition for Picis and this is the first time in years that I feel content and the ability to grow within the organization. They listen they promote from within and educate top notch.

Cant really think of one yet...... and that's the truth.

Things are looking bright for the future
|
|
Things are very exciting at Picis. Lots of progress in re-aligning Picis to current market needs. Attention given to many troubled areas under Optum. New products and initiatives are being introduced and many new employees. The new employees are bringing a fresh perspective and when combined with the many long term employees is making for some great ideas.
|
Time to focus on the future even more. Picis needs to solve the problem with the core products not selling. Perhaps the idea of introducing new products is to make sure their is some options if the core products don't start selling.

Great compny goign down very quickly..
|
|
Location right Near Lake so you can walk every day and enjoy surroundings. Very close to 93 and 95 .Medic al applications that was used by many great hospitals.
|
Not going to complain about low level managers because it is not worth it..
They are doing good for last 8 and half year showing top management how great everything and got rid of talent that were actually talent so they will not be challenged. No innovative product is launched, customers are dropping product and replacing with competitors. This company has been sold to many companies and each company who bought them change the skin so they can quickly sell it to some one .
Great product 20 plus year ago but due to lack of vision still using same technology and hence not able to compete. I was there for more than 8 years and once great product gone south and has not changed. Nothing to learn. Low level mangers doing great job showing new top management how great everything is and are very good at it.

Check real performance of all Low level Manager. You need to quickly do marker research and understand need of the existing and future client. Replace old tech. like Power Builder and update Architect and that can only be done if you have technically solid leaders.
Don't rely too much on people with domain knowledge because that is their strength meaning they will protect their knowledge meaning stay where are they are. Yes you need to catchup very quickly.

People make the company great
|
|
The company has gone through many changes in the last 18 months and the future has a positive outlook. The people at the company are what make it awesome. The new space is nice.
|
The company has gone through many changes over the last 18 months and sometimes it has been difficult to navigate. People have decided to leave so it puts a lot of pressure on those staying until they can be replaced.

Light at the end of the tunnel
|
|
Great staff to work with - very motivated and smart.
Clear vision by Management for next 12 - 18 months.
Investing in new initiatives says to me that there is growth and opportunity at the company.
New upward opportunities for growth at Picis and other Harris companies.
|
Change is always hard, and we've had a lot over the past 5 years. We've been bought by Optum, bought by Harris and then split into two business. I hope that this will be the last of this kind of change for the foreseeable future. Harris doesn't appear to re-sell companies so I am hopeful.
Some staff seem resistant to the new leadership style which can make the working environment difficult. If you see a problem, we can no longer just identify it - we need to come up with real solutions and then implement them.
