Layoffs at CVS

ARPA email
Has anyone received the email from Ceneten Benefits about ARPA? I first received a letter from CYC with high Cobra rates I waved it (TOO expensive) now I get this email that we are being covered at 100%. So what’s next? I waved it prior too this new... — read more
Layoff wasn’t the worst experience?
I thought the layoff was my worst experience here, but it wasn’t. When I thought about it a little better, there were a lot worse things than getting laid off. This company is best seen from a distance. I endured it all in fear of losing my job... — read more
Personal Items
Those that were laid off during the last round, have you received your personal items that were left in or on your desk? There is no way I was informed of being laid off back in February provided address and still have not received my personal items... — read more
Favoritism is becoming more and more obvious?
I really don’t know any way forward other than to leave this company as soon as possible. No matter what your performance is, nothing can be done in this company if you are not among the favorite ones. They may be the worst employees, but the value... — read more
Envolve Dental is the one of the most toxic workplaces I have ever experienced !
For anyone who is considering a role @ Envolve Dental...don't. The management is a bunch of micro-managing, unprofessional ineffective 'leaders'. There is no training, no growth opportunities unless you start in the 'basement'. The benefits are... — read more
Why is Centene hiring???
So close to major layoffs, why are hiring people? Just go look at the usual suspects: Glassdoor, Indeed, LinkedIn, and similar sites. There are hundreds of openings, most of which have been posted after the layoffs. Why? I thought we needed to reduce... — read more
Judged in interviews
Hey guys, just curious. Do you ever feel judged in your interviews when you state you were part of a layoff? Before, I interviewed and had no problem getting the job. Now it feels as if they look at me as if I did something wrong. I don’t even get so... — read more
Disgusting
This company is so degrading and poor. Being laid off is bad enough but to make me jumps through hoops is kicking me while I'm down. Really Centene?
How would you describe our culture?
Or better yet, the mess it has turned into? If you only had to use three words?
Cobra
I received a letter showing cobra will be almost $1,000 a month for me. Has annoying received their letter from cobra? Is it expensive also? Just curious and are you guys keeping it? How do they expect us to pay that much if we are laid off?
How fast did you find your next job?
I read a few posts about people who found jobs very quickly after being laid off from Centene in February. It makes me happy and gives me hope, however, I am still safe here and have been looking for a job for months but to no avail. There were... — read more
Cobra
Has anyone received a bill for cobra payments?
Severance
Has anyone received their severance or have any updates on when to expect?
Who are they laying off?
I applied and accepted a Centene case management job last week. They have several positions posted and are adding more on a regular basis. Are they laying off the nurses or are they laying off other staff members? Now I'm not sure I should've... — read more
Long mental recuperation
After the layoffI thought I would finally get some relief from this company, especially since I also found a new job very quickly. However, no. What actually happens when you let this company squeeze you out completely before they give you layoff?... — read more
Closing Florida office & moving it to Charlotte NC
Hi rumor starting that Tampa office will be closed and operations moving to Charlotte. Anyone have any insight?
Insulting company
Today our heartless director had a town hall taking about how great everything is and how secure everyone's job is and can't wait to see everyone's faces in September with the people that she gave notices too that take affect in May present on the... — read more
Centene Raises & Bonuses
Centene will be distributing bonuses on the check of 3/26/21 and raises will reflect on the 4/2/21 check ,My question is how can a company scream to be losing money 12 million and cut 3000 jobs and freeze 1500 posted position and not freeze raises... — read more
Sad to say but yes there are more layoffs
Not trying to scare anyone or be mean, Sad to say but this is true! There are more layoffs. Don’t get to comfortable! VPs, Directors and Supervisors are plotting their next victims. When my friend was laid off she was forwarded her email regarding... — read more
IT technology investment, technology research, technology maintenance, ALL UNEXISTENT in this company!
Centene is going to from BAD TO WORSE companies! Executive office, Managers and Supervisors do not have the most remote idea how technology and IT direction importance and how works, software design and efficiency are crucial for GROWTH!, they take... — read more
Before anybody asks
Yes, there'll be more layoffs today.
Not gonna miss this place
After much hesitation, I finally accepted a new job because I could no longer watch people working to exhaustion who never advance, while others climb the ladder without any effort (and merit). That of course happens everywhere, but at Centene it... — read more
Management has no idea what they're doing
That's obvious from knowing who they decided to lay off. Some of the best employees who made sure their job got done and helped everybody else were cut while those who spend most of their time twiddling their thumbs are still here. Do they really... — read more
All they do is play games with us?
I think the best description of how management sees us and what they do to us - they are actually playing games with us. That’s right, playing games, and I’m tired of that. They try to act professional, but that no longer has anything to do with... — read more
I wish I got laid off...
but instead I stayed in this joke of a company. Morality is zero, I have absolutely no will to do anything, and I have more work to do than ever. Those who got laid off actually took a short term loss for a long term gain! My biggest wish is... — read more
Looking forward to retirement?
A younger colleague recently asked me how I managed to stay here for so many years. It was never ideal, but once upon a time this company still maintained a common sense, a level of professionalism and labor standards. I am looking forward to... — read more
This is not a winning strategy
It would be nice if the ELT realized that profit at any cost (and by that I mostly mean at a cost of so many good, seasoned employees) is not the best strategy. That kind of approach is bound to destroy the company in the end, which will then mean no... — read more
Bonus checks
We had a meeting earlier today that informed us that Staywell in Florida will not be receiving bonuses as the other companies that’s under Centene. Anyone else hear the same thing?
People, be proactive!!!
I know complaining can be cathartic, but while you complain about the state of the company you also need to find some time to look for a new job. Or at least to prepare for the next possible (likely) layoff. Take just 15 minutes a day to work on your... — read more
Divulging severance details to others
They also included a confidentiality clause to the Agreement saying we are not to divulge any details of our severance package or terms to anyone but our spouse / SO and the like... I really wanted to hear your opinions on this. What is the logic... — read more
Will it always be like this?
Are we now at the point where job security is a thing of the past? Where we'll have to worry about possible layoffs every day for as long as we work at Centene? I'm not sure I can handle that. My mental health is suffering already and it's just a... — read more
Has anyone received their severance payment?
I have read a few post here that weeks have went by and they have not received their severance payment. Has anyone received theirs? Be very careful when you sign that severance letter agreeing to certain things, if they aren’t paying people and... — read more
Are all Centene plans working from home until September?
Seems like they are pushing certain health plans back in the field even though corporate has been given a September back to office date.
Severance
Has anyone actually received their severance pay? I would be careful singing the severance letter and sending it back because I read that some have not received their severance pay, and being that you’ve signed it and they don’t pay you, there is... — read more
Centene is just robbing the system
Managers, supervisors are completely clueless about what they are doing, they are just pretending they know to keep the ones above happy and telling they what they want to hear, when in reality is complete a trainwreck all around, it is affecting... — read more
Word in the industry is that....
Centene is up for sale. I interviewed for a position (did not get, wasn't a fit anyway) with a major multi-national service company that counts as customers all your major pharmas and healthcare companies. I had to cover the story of my position... — read more
It's officially over!
Today is my last day at Centene. Although, I haven't been logged on since the 10th of February. Anyway, I woke up feeling pretty good today. I am so ready to take my time and attempt to chose my next employer wisely. I hope you guys are doing ok out... — read more
