Every task feels like navigating a maze someone built while blindfolded. Documentation is outdated, handoffs are messy, and nobody owns anything end-to-end. I’ve been here over a year and still hit roadblocks daily. And no one seems interested in... — read more

ESPP stock purchasing plan. Convenient Timing.
So if you are enrolled in the Centene ESPP stock purchasing plan, our most recent purchase was done on July 7, after the stocks tanked. But it goes off of the price on June 30. Pretty convenient timing to announce something that tanks stocks right... — read more
AI
Curious if anyone knows how far along AI implementation is here? Seems like this would be a good time to hit the gas on this to reduce costs.
Misery loves company, so hello Molina
Looks like it’s there turn to be shredded. I’m starting to think the entire sector is rapidly sinking.
BBB
BBB just passed. We are cooked.
I'm so done
After seeing how Centene treats loyal employees, I’ve lost all motivation. Using work hours to job hunt and upskill. No point giving effort to a company that’ll discard you without a thought.
The stock is going down, and we all know what comes next
And mind you, the Horrible Bill will only add to the misery. Things were already bad, and the BHB is just making it worse. People talk about bonuses and raises, but honestly, we should be lucky just to keep our jobs. Not that I’d call it luck... — read more
Why do we need so many org changes?
What has improved since they started implementing them every six months? Are they anything but an excuse to get rid of more people?
Centene stock price just tanked
What just happened? Down 24% after hours doesn’t seem like a good sign for the company. Is this due to big horrible bill being passed in the senate or what?
Any rumors about layoffs?
Is it wrong that I’m actually hoping to be laid off, even with the job market the way it is?

Please stop saying layoffs were a good thing
Some of you were lucky, but my former coworker and a good friend was laid off last year and is still looking for a new job. He’s not doing anything wrong. He’s competent, knowledgeable, and hardworking, but he just hasn’t had any luck. He’s changed... — read more
Centene sued for wrongful membership death Arizona
Centene sued over alleged ghost network following member’s death. When Member’s can’t receive mental healthcare due to ghost networks. Horrible.
Layoff was the best thing ever….
Just joining the growing list of former Centene employees coming back to say, being laid off was literally the best thing ever for me. After 4 months of being unemployed, I have a job where I am appreciated and valued for my contributions. I enjoy... — read more

The new Chief Strategy Officer has been announced. I’ve had the pleasure (sarcasm) of working with the Chief Reactionary Office for many years. A lot of people were happy when Big Red left. I am included in this group. While she presents well... — read more

POs and BTS
Some of the POs are causing problems because apparently they think business and operations don’t know what we’re talking about. You just have your weekly meetings and tell us what dev said and act like you did something when you send out your notes... — read more

Fact
Centene has failed to do anything with a sound focus strategy. And in these uncertain times, a company led by dog whistles, complexity, and arrogance will not serve its employees well. No talks about capital position. No talks about liquidy. No... — read more

Leaving is easy….shackles are off
I left this company a couple of years ago and it was the best decision of my life. Like a cult, you don’t realize it until you feel the freedom. Not all companies are like CNC. The mission is bogus and a lie. I thought that helping... — read more
Contact current employer
I was filling out apps for the first time in decades and hit the contact current employer box like a brick wall. The last thing I need is Centene catching wind and deciding I’m “not loyal” before I’ve got an exit plan. So how is everybody ticking... — read more
