Pros

They're being taken away one by one

Cons

* Can't carry over vacation * Only 4 sick days per year * insurance options have just been gutted * Legacy Centene employees are always the ones to get undesirable changes when we acquire new companies - for instance, a 1.5% raise this year to put us "in line" with Wellcare employees * Legacy Centene employees are always the ones laid off * If you're not part of the in crowd, forget promotions * Will be required to go back to the office in person after working efficiently from home for almost 2 years * They will change your office without warning, forcing you to drive miles further than where you were hired to work *"Diversity and Inclusion" is only evident at the lowest pay grades

Pros

Good immediate supervisor, amiable and listens

Cons

No upward mobility Very slow at filling vacancies so ALWAYS working understaffed High nurse turnover Poor corporate sensitivity to local work issues HR is a mess, enough said In order to not carry saved sick time, paid out and put on “unlimited” PTO…BUT still healed to old vacation limits and now since no saved sick time, if out more then 5 days forced to file short term disability - first with state and then Centene makes up the rest, 😩 . Not what is best for employee but their bottom line! Speaking of bottom line, stock has been a bust since last split in Feb 2019! Heavy pressure to contribute to United Way, CEO pet project

Pros

Large company. Pays well. Nice people overall. Love the diversity, however could use more at the executive level. Employees seem passionate about their work.

Cons

Old school mentality around work from home. We’re loosing good talent as a result. Very administrative. IT infrastructure needs enhancements. Amount of PTO annually for new hires could be more competitive.
