There is a ton of rumors, and that may be pretty bad as many folks are saying there will be a big hit in 2017. Not sure if this is right and how many layoffs will take place but you have to wander in what direction is Centene going - look at the competitors and you will see that each one of them is losing jobs - they are doing it on purpose to increase profits even though they do not have to and their profits are already just fine.
Nobody cares about workers any more - Centene is not an exception here
