Anyone else think it is asinine that we have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield or Cigna as our offerings for insurance? Even Centene thinks their insurance su-ks. What a bunch of cr-p.

VSP Can Be Reversed?
Can employees who accepted the VSP but are still around (separation date hasn’t happened yet) get it reversed and get a new job at Centene, with “executive approval?” The agreement I saw and signed said nothing of this kind of loophole
3 external new hires, no notice given to team.
So, my team hired 3 new people, from temps agencies, and did not tell us. On top of that, we have been being offered to go home early, due to a lack of work. There's been zero transparency about anything. It feels fishy.
Are people getting offers?
If you're job searching, whether you were laid off or not, have you received any offers yet?

Where are we with cuts?
Are they done for the year?
I'm done with Centene.
At the end of the day all we are doing is denying coverage, delaying care approvals, and restricting access to doctors all in the name of major profit. What kind of world are we creating? This is my resignation letter - I'm Out.
Apparently, layoffs are now AI transformation.😂
Centene beat Wall Street's Q3 earnings expectations. Management raised guidance. Everybody celebrate! 🎉 Except there's some interesting math buried in those results. • ~61,000~ 53,900 employees. Down 7,000 in a year. • *2.3 MILLION fewer... — read more
