"My experience at Blue Cross was positive and challenging. IBC is largest provider in the five county area of Philadelphia. The culture in their company welcomes individuals to be creative with good opportunity for growth. I would recommend this company to interested candidates."

Blue Cross Blue Shield Employee

"I worked for Independence Blue Cross between April 2013 and November 2013 for a college internship. I was employed as an online portal developer and my job was to redesign and implement new web pages for IBC's service desk via Sharepoint 2010. The work environment was good and my coworkers were nice and professional, but the tools I had to perform my duties were lacking. In summary, I would work for IBC again but not for the service desk."
