Has anyone in Woodland Hills gotten laid off?

I'm noticing a bulk of the layoffs seem to be coming from states Centene was fined or sued from, I don’t know if that's coincidence or not…

I work as a referral specialist for arizona complete and have been helping Florida. My team has lost 4 and the Florida team 7. I have until 12/8.

Safe to assume there won't be bonus on top of the severance? It's just weekly payout * X Weeks?

Please share.

Was laid off today by my supervisor who read off a script and showed zero compassion or human decency. The lack of empathy shown is truly disheartening when I’ve put so much of my life into this job. I was removed from all teams group chats... — read more

I'm on a growing marketplace team but I don't think it matters since the cuts seem to be across the board. Anyone get the boot or all clear from their plan?

Has anyone gotten the dreaded email/phone call? If you have and feel comfortable sharing, what team/department are you? My team is so scared, and I know that has to be universal across the company at this point. I've seen people say they are... — read more 

Has anyone been told they are laid off? If so, what department and how did they inform you?

Very sorry for all those impacted! If some are notified roughly today and the last day is Dec 1 (about 8 weeks)…what were the August dates? Are the August layoffs literally having last days this week?

Regarding the “new” holidays, it looks like they are taking our floating holiday away. That su-ks! Also, they are only giving us 1/2 day for New Year’s Eve. This year we have 11 holidays. Next year we have 11.5. They are trying to frame it in a way... — read more 

I just wanted to wish everyone luck. I know we are all stressed with the unknown, but no matter what happens, we'll be ok. This may be a blessing in disguise to get out of this company and I am wishing you all the luck with finding better jobs... — read more 

I’m kind of sad I missed the flim flam show….did they ride out in clown cars throwing candy to the select few who were allowed to attend?

Don’t worry guys, we have two new paid company holidays next year. Perfect week for that announcement

They are incompetent enough to think this will work.

How much trouble am I in? I joined less than three months ago so I'm assuming that my number is up. I left another position to join Centene and I don't think I have the option to return. I didn't burn any bridges intentionally but my old manager was... — read more 

I'm not sure how I'm going to make it through the coming days or weeks and remain sane.

Centene had 74,500 employees in December 2022. As of July 2023 they were reported to have reduced that number by 9,500 down to 65,000. Statement of Operations: Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 For the second quarter of 2023, premium and service... — read more 

For all laid off - once you lose your health insurance, Centene will offer a plan that will cost you $1000 to $2000 per month. Genious!

All - FYI - If you get an email with the subject line stating “Checking in, please prioritize.” you'll know that you will be laid off. That's what they did back in August and I think they are still using the same process.

Not sure if this has any relation or relevance to the layoffs but I certainly found the timing interesting. You can copy the link: https://reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/s/DcgZiX54gG

Who all has received this? Was it an email notification?

All the comments form supervisors say the list to got has them baffled cause there’s no rhyme or reason. They are having to let go of people giving 100+% and meeting metrics.

How come he zipped on the topic of layoffs in 2024 so quickly that most employees didn't catch that. he clearly said there will be more layoffs next year. if they know they are putting employees on the block they need to let them know ASAP.

Was it based on quality? Performance? Tenure to the company? Tenure to the team?
