Is Tanya McNally also no longer at Centene? I see her showing as "presence unknown"........

Thoughts? They’re in the transition, why not? Shift a bit of sakes sales. Less risk and guaranteed a cut for Senior Leadership.

You know how when a party is winding down and there are just a few stragglers left. That is how my team is starting to feel from almost 70 at one time to about 17 left after ISP and VSP. It's been a gradual decline with a large balloon at the end... — read more

Looking for others perspective. I’ve been with my centene ~8 years. Enjoy my team and PL but I’ve also become burned out/stagnant, tired of feeling undervalued compensation wise, and anxious about the layoffs. Luckily my team is safe after I mass... — read more 

I want out but would rather be RIFd. Any PL on here that can help me out with how to make myself disposable?

Those that took the VSP are not safe, I see the writing on the wall, micromanaging happening everywhere, managing people out! Get a lawyer to have in standby! I can't believe how tight Centene is but then again I can believe it. $500+ million for... — read more 

I applied for VSP and had an exit date of 12/2026. Started applying for jobs the day that I put in the application as I was seeing the writing on the wall of what was to come. Fortunately for me I had two interviews on Monday 08/10/2026, received... — read more

Can we request to change our date. I have seen some comments that suggest dates moved up or requested a change as well as withdrawing, no information like this has been shared in my department by our leadership. TIA
