Pros

- pay is good - you will not have much contact with your supervisor or management - you may be eligible to work from home after 90 days - bonuses are available - being successful does not require a lot of knowledge, skill, or experience - your supervisor will likely not know what you do all day

Cons

- you can max-out your pay range and no longer receive annual salary increases - when you do have contact with your supervisor or management, it will likely be a bad experience - you have no support from supervisor or management to address problems or barriers - earning a bonus requires doing extra things in addition to your job duties - you will likely spend more time typing (documenting) than actually talking to or helping people - your supervisor will likely not know what you do all day

Pros

I loved the work and for 6 years was happy with what I did. I knew I made a difference and did my job well. Not many has the same skill set I did and there was always work to do.

Cons

1. It's an old white boys club. I say that as a white individual. It sucks that's how MFN rolls. They say they value diversity but they don't. They will have a token diverse person in an exec role but they're there to be a face, not make any changes or impact. 2. They pay really well but that hurts when you leave. 3. They layoff the good people and keep the undereducated white males. Why? See #1 above. 4. They don't want you if you are female and over 40. Think I'm lying? See the number of females 40+ who got hit in the January "reorganization." 5. HR is a joke. Talent acquisition couldn't find their rear ends with both hands and a map. So many excuses on why they didn't do their jobs. 6. MFN said the HealthNet employees needed to learn the Centene way and the Centene way would prevail. He lied. 7. They never entertained the idea of working from home. At all. Even a 25% WFH option would cut costs and improve morale.
