After the layoffI thought I would finally get some relief from this company, especially since I also found a new job very quickly. However, no. What actually happens when you let this company squeeze you out completely before they give you layoff?... — read more

Hi rumor starting that Tampa office will be closed and operations moving to Charlotte. Anyone have any insight?
Insulting company
Today our heartless director had a town hall taking about how great everything is and how secure everyone's job is and can't wait to see everyone's faces in September with the people that she gave notices too that take affect in May present on the... — read more
Centene Raises & Bonuses
Centene will be distributing bonuses on the check of 3/26/21 and raises will reflect on the 4/2/21 check ,My question is how can a company scream to be losing money 12 million and cut 3000 jobs and freeze 1500 posted position and not freeze raises... — read more
Sad to say but yes there are more layoffs
Not trying to scare anyone or be mean, Sad to say but this is true! There are more layoffs. Don’t get to comfortable! VPs, Directors and Supervisors are plotting their next victims. When my friend was laid off she was forwarded her email regarding... — read more
IT technology investment, technology research, technology maintenance, ALL UNEXISTENT in this company!
Centene is going to from BAD TO WORSE companies! Executive office, Managers and Supervisors do not have the most remote idea how technology and IT direction importance and how works, software design and efficiency are crucial for GROWTH!, they take... — read more
Before anybody asks
Yes, there'll be more layoffs today.
Not gonna miss this place
After much hesitation, I finally accepted a new job because I could no longer watch people working to exhaustion who never advance, while others climb the ladder without any effort (and merit). That of course happens everywhere, but at Centene it... — read more
Management has no idea what they're doing
That's obvious from knowing who they decided to lay off. Some of the best employees who made sure their job got done and helped everybody else were cut while those who spend most of their time twiddling their thumbs are still here. Do they really... — read more
All they do is play games with us?
I think the best description of how management sees us and what they do to us - they are actually playing games with us. That’s right, playing games, and I’m tired of that. They try to act professional, but that no longer has anything to do with... — read more
I wish I got laid off...
but instead I stayed in this joke of a company. Morality is zero, I have absolutely no will to do anything, and I have more work to do than ever. Those who got laid off actually took a short term loss for a long term gain! My biggest wish is... — read more
Looking forward to retirement?
A younger colleague recently asked me how I managed to stay here for so many years. It was never ideal, but once upon a time this company still maintained a common sense, a level of professionalism and labor standards. I am looking forward to... — read more
This is not a winning strategy
It would be nice if the ELT realized that profit at any cost (and by that I mostly mean at a cost of so many good, seasoned employees) is not the best strategy. That kind of approach is bound to destroy the company in the end, which will then mean no... — read more
Bonus checks
We had a meeting earlier today that informed us that Staywell in Florida will not be receiving bonuses as the other companies that’s under Centene. Anyone else hear the same thing?
People, be proactive!!!
I know complaining can be cathartic, but while you complain about the state of the company you also need to find some time to look for a new job. Or at least to prepare for the next possible (likely) layoff. Take just 15 minutes a day to work on your... — read more
Divulging severance details to others
They also included a confidentiality clause to the Agreement saying we are not to divulge any details of our severance package or terms to anyone but our spouse / SO and the like... I really wanted to hear your opinions on this. What is the logic... — read more
Will it always be like this?
Are we now at the point where job security is a thing of the past? Where we'll have to worry about possible layoffs every day for as long as we work at Centene? I'm not sure I can handle that. My mental health is suffering already and it's just a... — read more
Has anyone received their severance payment?

Are all Centene plans working from home until September?
Seems like they are pushing certain health plans back in the field even though corporate has been given a September back to office date.
Severance
Has anyone actually received their severance pay? I would be careful singing the severance letter and sending it back because I read that some have not received their severance pay, and being that you’ve signed it and they don’t pay you, there is... — read more
Centene is just robbing the system

Random selection?
Some say they chose people randomly, and some see patterns in the way they chose who gets RIF'd. I think though that the biggest reason is quite personal, they wanted to get rid of the ones they didn’t like. I know a person who is newly hired and... — read more
False hope
Prior to Centene, I worked for a company that at some point had frequent layoffs, but at no point did management try to give false hope to employees that this would not happen. In Centene it is just the opposite. They give false hope that you’re... — read more

COMMISSIONS ARE NOT GET PAID TO BROKERS
I have months without seeing my commissions, time to contact the INSURANCE COMMISIONER, GOVERMENT and place an CLASS ACTION SUIT to this corrupt company!
People need the money
I see a lot of people mentioning age discrimination and how nobody is doing anything about it. And it’s pretty simple. Yes, we can all see it's age discrimination but to even have a small chance of winning on these grounds it has to be a class action... — read more

Oops....You Drew the Short Straw
Ok, so after reading the many posts on here, it appears that if you were; older, older & paid decently, or in a group that was using ADA accommodations / FMLA that gave you dibs on being laid off. I also believe some of it was personal if... — read more

Who decides who gets laid off?
I was wondering who and how layoffs are determined. I’m assuming VP finds out from HR the amount of layoffs in the department and informs director, then director get with supervisors and decide, I’m not sure but I know I was laid off based on... — read more
