What’s the talk around here? I’m working remote so hard to gauge what’s going on in other departments here. Been here for more than 5 years.
Do we know what criteria they used?
By now, is it clear what criteria was used to determine who'd get the VSP offer?
Can’t access my offer
I had to register for the voluntary separation program, I put my number and email correctly. 2 hours later I am getting codes that I have requested. Do not call the number they provided. 1 hour and 18 minutes later they sent me to voicemail. Just an... — read more
Downsize Estimate
Does anyone know or heard a number on how much Centene is trying to downsize? Ive seen articles but they are very hush hush about the target number... only that our membership has decreased by 6%.
Questions I Would Take to Leadership

Leadership Communication
Has anyone heard from their leadership regarding all this? Ours has been radio silent since the announcement email from Sarah came out. Has anyone received ANY additional information from their leadership team? I guess I expected a quick meeting... — read more
Dang man - VSP
This is honestly hilarious, Centene can not even fire us correctly... The website wont give verification codes. We are in the dark for hours, Cryptic emails. Every leader is radio flipping silent. For a company I loved to work for and with, this... — read more
For those familiar with programs like the VSP
Is it standard practice that some "applications" may be denied? As in, you could accept the VSP terms only to be rejected anyway? My manager made our team aware of this possibility without coming right out and saying it. He said "not everyone will... — read more
Who is accepting the offer?
And what department do you work in?
Phone line is jammed up
I got the email, but the phone lines are extremely busy. I was hung up on after over an hour of waiting. What a mess.
What centene plans does everyone work for?
Wondering if different plans getting different information. Town hall for Fidelis today
How do we know that only those hired over 2 years ago are eligible?
I’ve been here a year and a half no email yet…
No email
I feel like crying. I really wanted this option. Fu-k my life.
VSP account
Is anyone having trouble getting in to their account to see the VSP offer? It’s not sending the verification code to my email no matter how many times I resend.
Barclay’s article today RE: Wakely data
https://www.tipranks.com/news/the-fly/centene-staff-buyouts-unliklely-related-to-wakely-data-says-barclays-thefly-news Sarah’s message was essentially: ‘when membership shifts, the organization must shift too.’ Barclays may be right about Wakely... — read more
What departments?
Any one know specifically what departments are being considered? I was laid off during the UnitedHealthcare layoffs back in September of 2024. Centene hired me after a long 7 month search and now I can’t believe im having to go through this again! i... — read more
Restructuring
Does anyone know who would be laid off from this restructuring the company is going to go through?
You guys don’t read anything
Idk why no one read or listened to the “London Calling” episode…. VSP offers expire 7/1. They’ll base the number of the layoff based on how many people took VSP’s. Everyone who is gonna be laid off will be notified by the beginning of August. Emails... — read more

Severance after being laid off vs. VSP
I got my VSP offer this morning and am considering it. I'm trying to figure out what I would get if I don't accept it, and get laid off instead. Does anyone know what the typical severance is during these rounds of layoffs? I'd like to compare it to... — read more
No email yet
No email yet. Does that mean I’m safe? Are emails being rolled out thru the day? I’m mid age, 4-5 years in, and nobody special so wondering why I’m ineligible if that’s the case.
Will all employees receive an email today?
Will all employees receive an email today, stating whether they're eligible or ineligible? Or will it only be going to those who are eligible?
Are they still rolling out emails or is that it?
Anyone know?
Can someone who received the email please share details??
Do we know if the emails will be sent throughout the day?

Terrified
I was hired a few weeks before the hiring freeze and haven’t built up a cushion to survive off of yet. I just graduated and moved here for the job. I’ll be royally sc--wed if I get cut whenever they start doing actual layoffs 😬
Today's the day
I don't understand how newly hired automatically get to stay:/
Will involuntary separations follow?
Do we have any idea how many need to accept the VSP to ensure there is no need for a follow up involuntary round?
I would take the VSP
I can't take the constant stress of worrying about layoffs anymore. I even convinced myself, foolishly, that working hard might help me keep my job. It's strange how our minds turn against us when we're backed into a corner. A change of scenery, even... — read more
Tomorrow
So if we get the email tomorrow about the VSP, we shouldn’t worry because everyone is getting them, or should we worry?
Given Job Offer on Friday
I was interviewed on May 11, and extended a job offer on June 12. Thoughts?
Departments
I saw the layoff/VSP will have an effect on all markets but does any know which departments are safe or aren’t? I read an article earlier and it seems this comes after falling membership with marketplace plans
Who is going to take it? Who is considering?
There are a lot of posts but obviously most need or want to stay, One PL commentator said that they are not expecting people to take it, just curious.
Layoffs again?
Are coders affected by this mess? Wtf seriously we all have to stress again
