All these leaders are jumping ship with a nice financial cushion to fall back on, while the rest of us are left waiting anxiously, wondering what’s next.

As someone who will either receive the VSP offer or leave on my own accord, I want to sincerely thank Centene. It may have not lasted as long as I wanted or ended the way I would have liked, but it has been a very beneficial, multi year gig of which... — read more 

For those familiar with Centene’s restructuring, especially employees from health plans that have already lost a contract or bid: What happened to the health plan after it lost the bid? Were employees transferred to other Centene plans or... — read more 

This is something I’ve never encountered before. It’s draining and but keeping hope alive. Just thought I’d share

So, a position that was once totally remote, now requires us to go on site multiple times a week. We reallyr had no choice. The clinics are as far as three hours away. We were just told this is what we will have to do now. Has this happened to anyone... — read more 

Has anyone that applied for the VSP received a call from Fidelity to talk about their 401K

In past layoffs, does anyone come to you with a list of names and you give your feedback on who you can let go? Do they look to performance reviews? Something I was informed of led me to believe that feed back from PL will be applied in this layoff.

Is anyone else on an ada reassignment with Centene? If, so. How is that going? Have they explained anything about the VSP, and if you are still eligible if a separation take place . you before the decision date? I can’t get any answers from no one... — read more 

It's stunning to see longtime employees, people who dedicated their careers here, get pushed out with no consideration. And now there's so much more to come. What happened to this place?

Curious, if any other people leaders have been informed on those that requested the VSP yet. And if so, how is that process going?

Got a phone interview scheduled with another company for this Friday afternoon. The position is with a local oncology clinic. Starting pay pretty dang close to what I make now after ten years. I didn't take the VSP, and obviously haven't been... — read more 

Are companies required by law to provide severance?

I seriously just got a call from a recruiter asking me if I was job hunting. I said yes. He said the job was as a clinical review nurse for Centene! WTF?!! We fighting got our lives here and they already looking to replace us with temps!

This regime tried nothing and is all out of ideas. MFN would have stayed in Washington and fought for not only us, but also everyone on ACA so they woulld have affordable healthcare.

The waiting is excruciating. So ready to go. And no I am not just gonna leave just here for support. Centene is not the same anymore.

So, for those of us who might get laid off and we DIDNT take the VSP - do we get no pay? or just get paid the 2 weeks like I keep hearing about? Thats rather cr_ppy! Does anyone here know for sure?

So once the VSP requests are all processed by/before the 27th, how long do you all suspect it'll be before the involuntary layoffs begin?

I dare you to go to Workday and peruse some of the ridiculous org charts in certain states. Some of these org charts are ridiculously top heavy…

I know it's tempting to wait and see what happens, but finding work is way easier when you're not desperate. This place is going nowhere fast, so why stick around?

......as my manager told us last Monday that an important update about the VSP was coming and he was referring to the date change to rescind your application.....the email that was only sent to those that applied for the VSP. So, either my manager... — read more 

Have you looked at the VSP email? They’re claiming that not applying for VSP doesn't mean you're on the chopping block later, but we all know how this usually goes. Does anyone have any idea how they’re actually calculating who gets impacted if they... — read more 

What's up with all the downvoting suddenly? It's likely Centene the company themselves doing it or company boot lickers (get a life). To employees: never complete those manipulating and invalidating voice surveys but speak your voice here safely and... — read more 

Does anyone have any exact insight on how long will they keep those that applied for VSP? I know it depends on needs I am just wanting to know if anyone has any specifics. The waiting is difficult. Just trying hard to keep busy.

I wonder if the VSP will be offered again if they don't get the number that they were wanting. I was back & forth, but decided not to take it. Now I'm wondering if I should have.

What is the date where people will officially get the vsp? Quite a few people I am working with are checked out and wondering if they took it.

Hey everyone! Does anyone have any recent job interview tips? It’s been a long time since I last interviewed, so I’m feeling a bit rusty. Please post some tips if you have any!

I applied for VSP and I can honestly say that after 15 yrs with company I am ok if they offer an earlier separation date than 09/04. I’m truly exhausted with all the changes within the company over that past few years. I don’t know what the future... — read more 

Of course an email comes out that the EBOS is postponed until the end of August instead of July 22.

Are most Centene employees working from home right now, or in the office? If you had to transition back to the office after a period of remote work, how was that adjustment?

So what happens if way too many people applied for VSP? It’s making me nervous since we received follow emails asking if we want to withdraw our application. Does that mean an overwhelming amount of people applied? If so, does that mean many people... — read more 

Can I nominate my leader for VSP? ;)

I applied for the VSP but I'm in a Service Coordinator role where each of us manages upwards of 200-400 cases. Will they accept us? What will happen to those cases? Not that I really give a sh*t I'm just worried I won't get accepted bc it's a broken... — read more
