Who knew that accountability really meant managing things HORRIBLY for a couple of years and then applying reactive management and tossing human beings out of the back of the plane they could never fly or land? Their plan going forward? Buy AI... — read more
Call centers
Anyone from any call center being laid off? I saw so many threads saying we “should be worried and no ones safe” yet everyone i know from the call center is still here and not laid off
watching this go down while on vacation is truly something...
I knew this week was going to be layoff week, but to see this playing out is crazy. I should not be on this forum while on vacation, however... it's like disaster p0rn, can't look away. I also want to try to prepare for whatever nonsense I'm going... — read more

08/11 layoff meetings for anyone? (Second day of layoffs)
My understanding is that today is the second of three days of layoffs. Did you get an ominous meeting today? What department was affected? Also my condolences in advance. This is terrible.
MEETING IN 15 MINUTES
I honestly don’t know what to expect at this point. Centene has been great to me, and I can genuinely say that working remotely here has given me the absolute best work/life balance I’ve ever had with a company. I’ve been able to raise my twins, be... — read more

Layoffs 8/11
Are layoffs still happening today?
Centene -- the 1st company to be taken down by AI
I understand that AI can help automate some processes, but it is NOT the answer! So many people hate talking to automated call centers and crave human-connection and understanding. AI cannot do ALL of the jobs Centene is erasing! It's been proven... — read more
Why not move RIF'd to open spots?!
I see lots of jobs open so why are they not trying to move people who are on the RIF list to these spots? Yes, some require specialized degrees, such as nurses, but many of them don't. In 90% of these jobs, people can be trained to do them. Why would... — read more

Our VP on infrastructure in BTS was let go yesterday. We have an all hands call this afternoon, I'm assuming to learn about a reorg.

NO RIF..PRIVATE PRIORITY MEETING
Well, I guess it was finally my turn. On August 10th, I received a Teams invite for a “prioritized meeting.” I already knew what it was before I joined. I’ve been following these posts and paying attention to what has been happening within Centene... — read more

Anyone receive a Fidelity special tax notice in the mail stating that your job changed last month? Did Centene notify fidelity before telling us that we are getting laid off? The letter came with a packet labeled SPD

This is all really eerie and so sad. Rest easy and take it one day at a time. Prayers for everyone. 🙏
How do you know a person has been RIF'd?
I watched a Senior Director that was supposed to work all week go from green this morning to the gray x. Their schedule is blocked off indefinitely (I was going to schedule a meeting). What are the tells?
Any PL's RIF'd?
Any PL's get let go today? I noticed a few in my dept were offline today. My PL logged off aroud 9am and never got back on. I hope not, because I really enjoy working under them. If a PL was let go, it wouldn't be immediate, would it?
RIF'd employees 8/20/26 Monday
What departments had some RIFs today? And how many? If anyone happens to know because no one is really being transparent in all this. Sad for the ones who were told today but happy for them that they get to move on and have some closure.
LOA
Just curious. I had went on a loa for maternity leave the first week of June. I come back 2 weeks ago and come to find out about the layoffs and vsp. NOBODY told me or emailed me. Nothing. I find out about it through someone on my team when I got... — read more
What is going on in NJ?!
The NJ market is such a mess. The lack of effective leadership is evident, and there is very little transparency. The culture can be incredibly cliquey, and some teams are unnecessarily difficult to work with. There seems to be very little... — read more
Any Word About Meridian Illinois?
Seems too quiet
Anyone know if sunshine health is being affected
Anyone In sunshine being laidoff or heard anything ?
Anyone else feel this way?
I didn't take the VSP because I didn't have any other income or enough in my savings to last and that vsp money could only last so long. I didn't think I'd find a job by September as we all presumed initially everyone who took the vsp would be gone... — read more
VSP lies Big Bait and Switch
Centene corp pulled a bait and swith with those that applied and VSP accepted. Majority of separation dates are set for next year 2027. When applying separation date was set on or around September 1st. Now that we applied we cannot cancel and face... — read more
Terminated, going to be homeless
It is deeply hypocritical for Centene to champion initiatives against homelessness while terminating thousands of employees and putting them at risk of losing their homes. Executive compensation of twenty million dollars a year while the workforce... — read more

Heard about my friend getting RIF'd today from random meeting
Their last day is 9/4. Got a random meeting today on their calendar with higher ups and HR. For their safety and making sure that they are not retaliated against, I will reveal nothing about them. I am sad to see them go. They didn't deserve it... — read more
Is All Kentucky Market safe?
Seems like nothing affected Kentucky for the most part. Is it safe to assume that Kentucky has been spared from the worst?
I was RIF'd, today, working through 9/4.
Will be receiving documentation regarding severance info, job assistance, end of benefits information in the mail in about 2 days. Normal procedure, nothing new here.
Pennsylvania H&W
Anyone from PA Health & Wellness impacted by RIF? PL said all 35 from PAHW who requested were approved for VSP with varying end dates. No mention of any RIFs yet.
Corporate Marketing or Communications impacted?
Any idea if today's RIF has impacted just LOBs or corporate departments as well? Especially, any layoffs in marketing?
CSA CA MEDI-CAL
