About Blue Shield of California and the Ascendiun Family of Companies

As of January 2025, Blue Shield of California became a subsidiary of Ascendiun.
Ascendiun is a nonprofit corporate entity that is the parent to a family of
organizations including Blue Shield of California and its subsidiary, Blue
Shield of California Promise Health Plan; Altais, a clinical services company;
and Stellarus, a company designed to scale healthcare solutions. Together, these
organizations are referred to as the Ascendiun Family of Companies.

At Ascendiun, we believe in a brighter future for healthcare. As the parent to a
family of four innovative healthcare companies, we’re reimagining what’s
possible. Ascendiun is guided by the goal of transforming a dysfunctional
American health care system into one worthy of our family and friends and
sustainably affordable for everyone.

To achieve our mission, we foster an environment where all employees can thrive
and contribute fully to address the needs of the various communities we serve.
We are committed to creating and maintaining a supportive workplace that upholds
our values and advances our goals.

Our Values:

Honest. We hold ourselves to the highest ethical and integrity standards. We
build trust by doing what we say we're going to do and by acknowledging and
correcting where we fall short.
Human. We strive to listen and communicate effectively, and showing empathy
by understanding others’ perspectives.
Courageous. We stand up for what we believe in and are committed to the hard
work necessary to achieve our ambitious goals.

Our
Workplace Model:

We believe in fostering a workplace environment that balances purposeful
in-person collaboration with flexibility - providing clear expectations while
respecting the diverse needs of our workforce. Our
workplace model
is designed
around intentional in-person interaction, collaboration,
connection,
creativity
and flexibility:

For most teams, this means coming into the office two days per week.

Employees living more than 50 miles from an office location, out of state
employees, and employees in certain member-facing roles should work with
their manager to determine in-office time based on business need.

For employees with medical conditions that may impact their ability to work
in-office, we are committed to engaging in an interactive process and
providing reasonable accommodations to ensure their work environment is
conducive to their success and well-being.

The Company reserves the right to
require
more presence in the office based on
business needs, and requirements are subject to change with periodic reviews.
