Severance signature
Has anyone signed their severance agreement yet? It says you have to receive your final paycheck, that would be this Friday. Payroll is most likely processed already. Will this negate the agreement? Fyi...I was ISP not VSP
Post-Separation Date Dayforce Login
Does anyone who took the VSP have the instructions on how to see our final paycheck in Dayforce?
Cognizant
A few months ago there was a report that Centene was partnering with Cognizant for AI tech enabled processes. This partnership would bring about $5 billion in revenue to Cognizant, while saving Centene a ton of money by not having staff. I started... — read more

Severance Package — Anyone Still Waiting?
For those whose last working day was around September 4th, has everyone already received their severance package/agreement by email? I still haven’t received mine and just wanted to see if anyone else is still waiting. Thanks!
Centene takes the VSP!
Congratulations on your VSP, Health Net. As Sarah London explained to employees earlier this year, “When our membership shifts, we need to shift our organization accordingly.” Apparently that advice is now available to subsidiaries. We wish... — read more

Post VSP/ISP changes
I currently work on the Medicare side, just went through teams/email organization tree to see what impact 9/4 had. All of inside sales were wiped out, and field sales are very few. What changes have you noticed in your department?

Skeleton Crew
At this point, we’re basically a skeleton crew trying to keep everything moving while picking up the work left behind by the people who left. The interesting thing is, the workload doesn’t leave when the people do. It just gets redistributed to... — read more

VSP payout
Has anyone who separated on 9/4 gotten an update as to when the payout will occur? Also will anything deter you from getting the VSP? I just have so many questions and concerns and it was written poorly; leaving a ton of questions
Org cuts coming in Dec
If you thought the cuts were done, or mostly done, wrong. The Org cuts will occur Dec. Most will be told early to mid Nov. CN wants everyone off the books by Jan. Welcome to the magical 3% plus margin goal. Stock should do well though..
You know what wouldn't surprise me?
If we had layoffs later this week. For no other reason but to fu-k with us. That's how low my opinion is of this leadership. I honestly believe them capable of that.
Severance Weeks Less
First. I received my severance paperwork on Sept 5 around 3:42am via my personal email. Second. Severance had less than 17 weeks it told me I would get. Third. I didn't sign anything. It is an email on the severance you can address your questions... — read more
Return equipment
Does anyone know where we send our laptops if our last day was 9/4? I haven’t seen any instruction.
No Release?
My last working day was 9/4. I see everyone talking about their release. I never received one in Workday. I checked all day until I lost access and nothing. Are they sending them in waves?
Release
Does anyone feel like this release was written horribly?? Are you signing? Was this legal?
What/Who determines the VSP dates?
I currently work in retention, and our job is mostly on the phone conducting outreach to members, my VSP apparently is not 9/4/2026, and instead it’a in 2027. I didn’t think my job was that important that they needed me to stay until next year? ... — read more

My post was deleted
Some of the leaders on here are insecure enough to work extra hard to have it taken down. I did not say anything that was beneath the belt, but sure admin… burry the truth
Workday
Did anyone who took the VSP and separated 9/4, get to log in to Workday and it says Terminated?!? Is this normal? Should I be worried about receiving my VSP?
Anyone under 40 get laid off?
Just curious....noticed some age related trends in my department...

Are layoffs the new normal?
Something we have to deal with as a fact of life, not as an occasional happening?
This is it. The day finally came.
I have very mixed feelings about leaving. Part of me wishes I could have stayed and continued my healthcare career with the company. But another part of me recognizes that, based on my experience, management and the environment created by its... — read more

Severance package/involuntary laid off employees
Why are some saying there was no severance package for those involuntarily let go this time while others are saying there were? Can anyone who was laid off set the record straight?
VSP Sign AFTER last paycheck verbiage?
in the agreement it says "except that Employee may not sign this Release prior to Employee’s Termination Date and prior to receiving Employee’s final paycheck.” did anyone sign theirs today??? I'm confused lol
ICHRA COBRA ??
Im reviewing the vsp email and there is a section about ICHRA cobra..Are they offering ichra health plans to people instead of the plan they had before but still want cobra premiums?
