Any news on these? Is it time to head for the lifeboats?
How low can it go?
With the stock down around 25% YTD, does Centene now become a M&A target? If so, probably means an even lower headcount, as they try to polish the books.
Career Coaching Email
Didn’t anyone else receive a “career coaching” email from a third party sender, there were about 2000 employee recipients on that email. I found it very suspicious. I feel like those are the next batch for layoffs. I guess this time around I wont get... — read more

Salary to Hourly
Does anyone know why some salaried positions are now being switched to hourly? Is this in response to the DOL’s attempt to raise salaried wages?
42k....
"43,000 CenTeamers" they've laid off over 30k in the last 2 years.....how incredibly sad.
CMS appointment
for those of you who said “nothing would happen to the ACA”, I see yet another unqualified appointment that means hard times for Centene: Dr. Oz to lead CMS.
applied
I have applied to over 20+ positions. I am well accomplished in my career and am looking to move up. I went to a webinar in the summer where someone from Centene HR mentioned that just a little over 33% of internal candidates were hired, and the rest... — read more

Does this company track computer clicks? If so, can you see the program running on task manager?
When does the board say it is time to move on?
She is not making the shareholders anything. She started as CEO in March 2022. In February 2022, "CNC" stock, which refers to Centene Corporation, was trading around the $58 - $60 range. As of November 18, 2024, the price of Centene Corporation (CNC)... — read more

Write up before layoff???
Just out of curiosity... how many of you were put on PIP or written up right before you got laid off? I was and several others I know were.
Been here 12 years- and now on a PIP for 60 days
Been in my role almost 13 years. Now suddenly, I’m marked off on audits for the most ridiculous reasons. I can’t argue/ rebuttal it because I was told I’m not allowed to per mgmt. The auditor is incorrect in some of their “findings”. I feel like this... — read more
Centene’s 2024 Q4 Layoffs Have Begun
I got notice today. No performance issues. Told positions that existed yesterday don’t exist today.

Centene will no longer cover glp-1 for weight loss!
As an employee who has tried every traditional way of weight loss this is very disappointing. The email sent out today however does state they will cover the medication if you have a diabetes diagnosis. How unfortunate that we have to be more sick in... — read more
Don't stick around here for too long
The only thing Centene is good for these days is to be a stepping stone for better things. Get in, grab a year or two of experience, three at the most, and then move on. You used to be able to build a career here, but not anymore. Not for years. Go... — read more

This job became too stressful for me
I’m overworked and tired. My team is not well organized, and most of us are exhausted. The exhaustion from the workload is compounded by a toxic work environment. There are few of us who rely on each other and that’s how we make it through the day... — read more
