Thread regarding Centene Corp. layoffs

Confused

I’m confused to how some posts just “disappear” but slamming the CEO is ok? To which I will state, I don’t agree one person is responsible for the mistakes made just because of their ranking at the very top. There are several layers of mgmt that control the decision making. It seems a bit misaligned to blame the CEO or any top line leaders for what the layers below do. Sure they can put emphasis on culture or priority, and absolutely they must control budgets and present to the board on behalf of the organization their plans. Cuts are inevitable but they are not superhuman, they cannot be everyone everywhere. It’s the people who you bring concerns to their attention and they turn their head and twist the story that you need to be weary of… regardless. Though this board is “anonymous” I’m not so certain it really is. I myself will be careful with my words because I’ve never seen such a heated job board. And in conclusion as I firmly believe at my current state, layoffs would be a gift. So keep them coming and try not to shrink the severance packages too much. I heard that’s happening. But what can you believe these days??

Oh look. More anonymous ranting and raving employees on a site that helps them stay hidden so they can keep the jobs they hate while working for people they hate more.

Yeah. Keep posting. Because that’s all you are ever…ever…going to do.

You outed yourself. You are one of DA’s cronies and the pigs that will lay with swine in the ruins. Your position has a life span of approximately 2.5 years n

Here's the thing. A manager is ultimately responsible for what their employees don't do. They decide to hire or fire those employees, and those decisions have a direct impact on them. Their own director is in the same boat. If you aren't performing and your manager allows it, then they aren't performing either and they are responsible to their director for that. The director's VP also holds the director responsible for having a manager who has an employee who isn't performing the duties. This goes all the way to the top. The CEO is responsible for the crew working directly with them and making sure that crew is running their own ships properly. So you are wrong. A CEO of any company is ultimately responsible for how the business is run. In this case, the Board is in charge of the CEO, and they are the ones calling the shots. But it doesn't mean that she isn't responsible for the pyramid of people underneath her. She absolutely is.

If “people do whatever they want” who are we to blame? Leadership I would presume. Six figures an no control is not a good look for an executive.

Honestly it’s definitely not the most senior leadership that alone are the problem.

I’ve had meetings in the last couple days where it’s clear that we have people who do whatever it is they want to without ever considering the impact.

We don’t think or act like one team. We have plenty of people that need to go at ALL levels.

Yes O.P. Let's use your haughty corporate slogan and level set right here and now.
I'll use your exact words. "Do you recognize the pigs? Would you recognize the eval moneyed class when you see them or while they are shaking your hand and complementing your dedication? Have you already abandoned your integrity and morals to assist them in their quest to grow their millions in any way possible hoping they will toss you a bone someday?
You should hear what your corporate idols really think of you when the caviar is served on silver platters and the wine is flowing.

Look. Your post is defending the C-suite AND saying you want to get laid off. How about you do a little soul searching and pick a side. Het Help. You are suffering from corporate Stockholm syndrome.

Facts: Always looking for a gold star, have volunteered to be laid off, heads are precious, don’t assume to know me. 😑 To be honest, if your statement holds true “Posting this and believing it's not fully anonymous only means you wanted your gold star…” I won’t even post the latter part because it was presumptuous and unbecoming. But! I kind of think YOU gave me the gold star in the attention you can’t help dishing out yourself. Welcome to the party. Do you recognize the pigs? Let’s level set. There is absolutely nothing wrong with me believing no one or few ppl at a top line can control the whole entire system. This company is huge and has its flaws. All do. Regardless of argument, for honesty’s sake... You can’t tell me what to think. I like my ⭐️ though. Thanks.

What if I told you that Centene is not in the business of providing healthcare to people. Centene is in the business of making profit off of the current crony capitalist medicare system. Be weary of the truth it may get taken down as aggressive hate speach.

Oh...You haven't been canceled yet? Give it time.
Welcome to 2024. This is an anonymous public facing chat-board. There is no "Right" or Wrong" comments or intellectual thinking that goes into what crosses the line.. Say something that goes against the current accepted indoctrination and it will be taken down. Executive figures are fair game unless you attack their DEI aspects specifically. Don't mention DEI related thoughts, healthcare openions, current world events or current political decisions and your posts will stay up.

No one is ‘slamming’ anyone. C-suites are public figures responsible to the employees and shareholders of the companies they represent, and that gives us and other stakeholders every right to comment on their work. That's what some of us do here from time to time - criticize their work. Sorry if you don’t find that constructive.

Why are you here?
Why haven't you volunteered to received the "gift" of a layoff? Why haven't you just quit and disassociated yourself from all of this.

Posting this and believing it's not fully anonymous only means you wanted your gold star in the event anyone was exposed.
