There aren't enough people to do the work right now. If they cut any more there won't be enough of us left to get everything done. This is a simple fact. I would be happy to be laid off with severance. I'm overworked so that would allow me to take a... — read more

Basically, I don't want to leave this company, but I want to leave the bad manager. This is a man who is tactless and lacks some basic communication skills. He is always ready to criticize, but the problem is that he doesn't know my job at all. How... — read more 

I've had a few interviews in different departments for the role of a data analyst. Just wanted to get some ideas of what it's like to work as a DA at Centene.

After I took a role at Centene I found out I had replaced two people and one of them had a title (+ salary) higher than mine even though they had significantly less experience. When I brought up that >I was doing the job of multiple people and had... — read more 

I was promised a promotion two years ago and I'm still waiting for it to become a reality. Whenever I ask about it, my manager has some story on why it can't happen then and there but it will soon. I'm getting tired of it. Why promise me something... — read more 

Judging by posts here, there'll be plenty of those who chose not to vaccinate who'll be shown the door. That means that the rest of us should be safe for the foreseeable future, even if the quarterly results are not that good. The only way I can see... — read more 

Anyone laid off from HN?

Interesting to see how layoffs are done this month and how it will coincide with the earnings report due out on February 8th.

My team here in IL was notified this morning. Their last day was Friday 1/28

Anyone know how many people are being let go due to being unvaccinated? And, is it for sure ALL unvaccinated? I imagine there are people at all levels of Centene that don't want to get vaccinated. I think today is the day for the layoff.

For those that were laid off and accepted the severance package and then were rehired by Centene. Do they make you pay back the severance or can you keep it?

As per bloomberg, Cigna is reportedly interested in taking over centene. What do you guys think? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-01-26/centene-said-to-have-drawn-interest-from-cigna-in-recent-months

I just quit my job with Centene. Last day was Jan 4th. We were told all year long that dec 24th, 27th, 31st, and jan 3 would be paid holidays. On Dec 21st we get an email how those are now mandatory work days, but we will still get the vacation pay... — read more 

I think it's safe to say at this point that the only area that currently isn’t understaffed is management. Actually, I think that's where the real fat is. We could get rid of a third or even half of them and hire people who do the actual work. It... — read more

Just curious. For those of you that came in after September 2021, were you giving remote work option right off? Or did they tell give you stipulations? I’m trying to understand how people coming in after me are able to work remote. I have been here... — read more 

Why does everyone predict layoffs? Financials look good, what am I missing? Are we getting a bonus this year? I haven’t seen anything confirming this. If so, is it 100% funded?

Some say that the next workforce reduction will not be that big since there are many who will be cut because they refused to take a jab. Do people really think so? I think that the unvaccinated will not "save" the job of the vaccinated in this... — read more 

Just checking if the information is correct that the person will still get the bonus, even if he got laid off a little before he was supposed to get the bonus? It would be really horrible to get laid off a few days before the bonus and therefore... — read more

No wonder this company is sinking.

The retention bonus is a good attempt, however, I don’t think it will stop employees from leaving. Why? Because the problem here is not just that people think they are not paid enough, but a whole bunch of other issues as well. I know people who... — read more 

Leave and don't look back!

Is just the call center peeps the only ones getting this extra 1000 - 2000 bonus in February or ???? Does anyone know. Not one person has a clue , some where told and others not part of it WTF ?

Just curious if anyone here is in the know about whether or not return to office could be delayed due to omicron. I’m nervous about it.

It would take an entire cultural upheaval - the kind that isn’t likely, and if it does take years - years of my life I’m not willing to waste. The org is too big. Too many acquisitions in too short of time. And the org goal just doesn’t work for me... — read more
