Pros

The pay and benefits in information technology are above average. Benefits were good as well.

Cons

No work from home option, ever. The CEO states this at every employee meeting - really an 80's work environment. Work life balance is non existent, I worked every holiday the last 3 years - that's why I left.. Done. More fire fighting than project work. Don't believe the good reviews on this site, centene has an active group to counter negative reviews, you will notice after every negative comment here the next few days many positive reviews are posted - these come from the image mgt group - not real people...

Pros

Decent salary and bonuses. Good amount of PTO.

Cons

Almost no communcation with management, LITTLE TO NO TRAINING, and promotions for only those that have been deemed to walk on water. Boring work. Coworkers are not friendly and stay in cliques. Management tries to pretend that there is a family atmosphere but it's really not.

Pros

work from home & working with the Medicaid population

Cons

upper management does not support staff. I sent an email to my supervisor about not having access to my call reviews. I sent a follow up email 2 weeks later. 2 weeks later I sent one more. 8 months later I was asked why I was not reviewing my calls. I advised I was waiting to regain access and my supervisor blamed me for not sending a 4th follow up email instead of taking ownership of her oversight and fixing the issue. I complained to HR about her unresponsiveness. 3 weeks later I was let go because as I was speaking on a call, the caller interrupted me and I asked them to please let us both speak one at a time. I was told I spoke over the caller and that was the reason I was let go. The caller was understandingly upset because the company has sold claims processing overseas to pay less and in the last 8 months I have seen more incorrectly denied claims and incorrectly upheld appeals than I have in the 5 whole years I worked there combined.
