Has anyone who was laid off Aug or before received their severance or unemployment?
What percentage do you think ?
I’m thinking they will cut a total of 14 percent maybe 15 , thinking 65000 employees left or little less once done. We will see.. horrible.
Anyone negotiating severance?
Just curious if anyone has tried or thought about trying to negotiate their severance?
Told not to talk about last week...
I just found out we're not suppose to talk about what happened about anything that happened last week because it's being monitored on teams!?! This place is a disgrace on so many levels...
Things to know
My heart sincerely goes out to those of you who have been impacted. I was laid off during a previous ‘round’ several years back during Covid, and let me first say I personally know how you are feeling … it is completely eviscerating. The only... — read more
POC disproportionately affected
Has anyone else noticed that people of color were disproportionately affected by lay-offs? In my team, the majority of people impacted were black and brown... This seems odd in light of Centene's supposed DEI.
the new way to build morale
My PC was replaced by IT last week, and I informed a friend that it was a brand-new machine. My friend burst out laughing and said, "It's used exactly like the one before." Now, however, IT is only permitted to utilize equipment that appears to be... — read more
I don't feel like it's the weekend
I feel completely drained and unable to relax. While I know it might be over, the "for now" part keeps hanging over my head and fueling my anxiety. I wonder if this is how I'm going to be feeling all the time. One thing is clear, Centene has messed... — read more

Has All 2000 people been notified?
This is so sad. Centene worker for 5.5 years. So sorry for all who lost their job senselessly Is this round finished?
Performance doesn’t matter
Was laid off, been recognized for going above and beyond, exceeds expectations, etc. Don’t bust your tail for these people - it doesn’t pay off
For all who did not laid off.
Quite quitting is the way to remain sane. It is simply doing the job you're being paid for and nothing more.
Internal openings
Anyone laid off have an internal position in the works?
Severance pay

Tough week, self-care
This has been a tough week with more challenging weeks to come. We are all able to acknowledge the failure of leadership from the top down, and that likely will not improve. If possible, find ways to care for yourself outside of the work day. Get in... — read more

Rs layoffs
UM here and have been stuck on 40+ same day TAT for months. RS can’t keep up but layoffs regardless- top employees at that. This won’t end well
I wish I had been laid off
I know it might sound insensitive, but it's the truth. I realized in the last few days I don't want to work at a place like this anymore. My mental health is very important to me. Considering that I don't believe things will improve, the only way to... — read more
Exec popularity voting here.
Some have said glassdoor is not fair. Could we be fair here? Simply reply with exec’s name and up vote for great leader, down vote for needs to go. Keep it civil folks
This is taking a toll on all of us
Since this layoff was "leaked" .... whoever is responsible for that, thank you.... more so please keep leaking. If there are truly more months of layoffs coming, I think we should all demand transparency. (not the passive comments made in townhall)... — read more

Sarah - Do we need product directors??
Most of product directors and VPs have 5-8 resources reporting to them..why can’t these product directors be let go instead of product owners and product managers being let go? Replace these directors with managers to save dollars
Spies around
Have you noticed there some characters hunting down everywhere that someone calls Sarah the poet, and down voting every time that something is said about this id--t , incapable CEO that shows zero empathy or humility towards employees.
Blackballed
Is it even worth it to apply within or have we all been blackballed???
Not surprised!!!
The board of directors been trying to change this company forever. Sarah just the fall guy That’s why they were trying to force Michael to retire.
CA LAYOFFS
Have there been any layoffs for CA PO, HNU, or CCRN??? If so, which dep??
Transforming the health of the community, one person at a time
The bright side. Did we really want to work for a company who generated $1.25 billion in Medicaid fraud in roughly two dozen states?
Yesterday was my turn. I’m in BTS in St. Louis with 8 years at the company.
9 months pregnant so that’s fun. It seems like a lot of folks going on Mat leave or FMLA were let go.
