We keep losing good people
A few months ago we lost a very helpful manager who had no problem sharing knowledge and experience with the team. He left for greener pastures and his replacement is mediocre at best. He doesn’t do anything other than “busy work”. We aren’t as... — read more

Just do it
People who are unhappy at Centene tend to overthink their options and they just end up staying because it seems too complicated to do anything else. I was stuck in that pattern for far too long. In the end, I decided to stop thinking about it and... — read more

Why are you still here?
The saddest thing of all is that this used to be a very good place to work, and now it is the complete opposite. At this point, I don't even know why I am still here? Maybe a fear of the new beginning? OK, nowhere is the grass much greener, but I... — read more
Do those at the top get the right information?
Since it is obvious to many of us that top management does not know how bad middle management is when it comes to their relationship with employees, I sometimes wonder if those at the top actually get the most relevant and accurate information about... — read more

Why are they against WFH?
What is the real reason that most managers are against WFH? They think we collaborate more when we’re in the office? I don't think so. Are we more productive in the office? I don't believe that either. Is it easier to control us? Maybe? Are... — read more
Little or no options
Hard times. I have several colleagues who are panicking trying to find another job that will not require them to be vaccinated. It seems that there are almost no such jobs. Do people who refuse vaccination have any options at all?
Workplace “flexibility”
Has anyone heard or know how “flexible” the new flexible work arrangements will be? I noticed in their announcement that it’s very vague as to who exactly will be able to benefit from the FT remote opportunity. Management claims to not have any... — read more

Ethics Point is a Joke
I put in a concern with evidence anonymously on Ethic point almost 2 months ago and they have not posted a single comment or response on my issue and they are working in favor of leaders. They are worse than HR and ER and cannot be trusted either.

Is hard work worth the effort if you are on a PIP?
A lot of people say it's not worth the effort at all because mostly everyone who is on a PIP is eventually told they are not needed anymore.. In essence, they say that all the effort is in vain and that we should not exhaust ourselves because... — read more

We need a list of companies we know for sure will not mandate vaccines at any point in time. That way people will know where to apply if they have no intention of getting the jab. I don't want to quit for a job that might ask me in the future to do... — read more
Always drama!
A little stress is okay, everyone has to deal with stress at work. However, being so stressed out that I can barely recover until the next day is not normal. And it's all because of the manager. I don’t know if those at the top are aware of what... — read more

Staff knows who to call and who to avoid when we need an admin. Salaries/titles don't correspond to actual quality of work or workloads. Admins brag about adding bogus overtime to their time sheets because managers are not managing and then team... — read more
Do you think that's happening here too?

Why do we have to upload the vax card?
I had Covid last month and took meds to get over it. Never took a day off and kept working from home. Centene doesn't have the right to ask me or require me to upload my personal information into a database. I may decide to take the shot later or I... — read more
How many experienced abuse at Centene?
My experience at Centene was absolutely horrific (and I’ve worked for some pretty bad employers over the years that didn’t even reach this level, so I don’t think what I experienced can be expected everywhere). It actually felt like an abusive... — read more
