Do you also have a lot of colleagues who have left and who have not yet been replaced? _ I don't know what Centene's replacement plan is, but it seems to me that the company has a growing problem with hiring and engaging new employees in place of... — read more
Do they even have anyone left to give layoff to?
I don’t know how accurate that is, but I recently heard a story that small layoffs are happening under the radar. If that’s true, then it’s crazy, because given how many people are leaving, I can’t believe Centene has anyone left to lay off. — read more

Retention Bonus and Layoff after it
Will you be let go immediately after being provided the retention bonus? Is there anyone still with the company after getting this bonus??
Fired without vax
Now if you don’t get the vax you will be terminated. It is my body my choice. This is wrong in so many ways, specially when you work from home and don’t go to the office.
Why can’t we submit an antibody test?
I had Covid back in December, still showing antibodies as of last week. Shouldn’t we be able to provide an antibody test?
Tired of working here
I can't be the only one who's just tired of it all. Tired of the constant worry and stress associated with never-ending layoffs, tired of cr---y company politics that favor buttkissers over hard-working employees, tired of feeling frustrated because... — read more
Approaching HR about a bad leader?
Is it even safe to ever approach HR about tracked and documented poor leadership behavior? Something needs to be said but people don’t trust HR or ER. I’ve watched this leader get very mean with his staff several times - out of line and... — read more
Will you get your vaccine if FDA approved?
Full US Food and Dr-g Administration approval of the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine is "imminent." A Biden administration official said approval of the two-dose vaccine "could be as early as Monday."
Walk away
If you oppose getting the vaccine then walk away. It's going to help both you (you won't have to do something you really don't want to do) and us (if enough people walk away then layoffs and firings might not be necessary for a while.) In my opinion... — read more
Centene Ohio back on

Has anyone had any conversations/interactions with HR about the vaccine?
Just wondering if so what you said, what they said etc.
Lavishly paid and unapologetic. Company at center of Medicaid scandal focuses on profits.
@plu+1cc4xDpV had link to this article via Apple News in another thread, and it should be brought out here. It really rips the cover off what Centene is all about. Direct link is here:... — read more
Have there been any more cuts today?
I know Friday is usually not a day for layoffs but nothing seems to be off-limits anymore. I haven't heard that anything else was hit but it's not impossible. It's shameful how regular layoffs have become here. Every few months we hear about a few... — read more
Layoff in Tampa
Big layoff today in Tampa. Legacy Wellcare.
Anyone else quitting when that make us go in to the office?
Just curious is I’m the only one. It is ABSURD they would make us come into the office after successfully working from home for so long.
Medical Accommodation

The best advice I can give you
You agreed to less than market value pay to be used and abused by a company that doesn’t care in any way, shape or form about you. Once you realize and accept this there are only two options: grin and bear it while feeling undervalued and... — read more
Centene is mandating vaccines for employees
If this company couldn’t get any worse, they are now officially mandating vaccines for all employees.
Who will be the target?
There is no doubt that the cuts will happen, unfortunately. People are increasingly talking about big layoffs as early as next month or in September. I try not to be anxious and focus on looking for a new option, but I’m still a little worried. I... — read more
Possibility of Layoffs in August/September

How many have found new jobs?
Of the people who were laid off in the latest round, how many have been able to find new jobs by now? I know there's no way to know exactly, but people here must know some who were let go and whether they are still searching. I'd just like to know if... — read more
Survey taken seriously?
Two thirds of the team left some very critical criticism about management and lo the senior manager has found a new job. I don't know for sure that it's related to the survey, but I believe that it must be. Maybe it is way too soon to be... — read more
Update regarding contract OH
So anyone have any idea of ODM decided to move a plan around on the list and add Buckeye back on? Or we still in the waiting game until October? Wondering what the future holds and how long the silence will continue.
Anxious due to age
I’ve been working on my exit plan for well over 9 months. My biggest fear so far is not being able to find a job replacement because of my age. There are a few people I know who are still unemployed and looking, while the younger ones have landed... — read more
Don't let them fire you!
And don’t let them fire you. Demand a lay off if they want to get rid of you so badly. Their strategy is to make you so miserable you’ll either dig your own grave, or quit. I waited too long to be able to negotiate leaving on my terms, and eventually... — read more

What parts of the company could be hit with layoffs most severely?
