Culture needs to shift more rapidly

Pros

- The company is trying to help some of America's most needy people - Recent shift to more flexible working conditions (e.g. work from home) is a big plus - Pay is pretty decent compared to other companies

Cons

- Too many people with competing agendas and little interest in collaborating - "One CenTeam" is a pipe dream at this point. - Lack of organization and clarity on priorities at varying levels - Bad "leaders" (at all levels) are left in place for too long. - Too many people are not pleasant to work with and negatively impacting others. Unfortunately, this seems to be getting worse, when many were hoping it would get better with a new CEO.

Pros

Interview process was a great experience. I was kept informed of the next steps and/or of any upcoming changes. I am currently on week 2 and the onboarding process has been one of the best and most thorough I have experiences, especially in a fully remote environment. My equipment arrived well before my start date, however one of my monitors was broken. I was promptly sent another 2 days later. Everyone I worked with from the interview process to getting set up were all very pleasant and helpful. Being in a remote environment, it can be hard to navigate your first week, but due to the process CNC has in place, it was rather simple. I believe I made the right choice joining Centene!

Cons

None as of week 2! :)

Pros

I made the decision to apply for a position late in my career. At 60 I did not expect to be hired but figured I had nothing to lose by applying. I was invited for an interview and had an offer within a few hours. I commented on this to my hiring manager later and her response was "we hire talent, not demographics." I have been given more opportunity with Centene to be creative, independent and innovative than any other setting. Opportunities to advance and move within the corporation are plentiful.

Cons

If you have worked in non-profits previously you will have a culture shift. This is not a negative. It is different but my observation is that this also drives and accelerates change agility and innovation.
