Pros
Compensation and benefits is probably the best thing going for Centene employees. If you are absolutely desperate for a job, hire on but only until you find something else. Don't worry - Centene is famous for their employee turnover rate. You will also receive a decent severance package as long as you sign a document stating you will not sue them. Excellent Pre-school at a discounted price that is open 6am to 6pm so you can work almost 12 hours per day.
Cons
Too many to count and list here. Major issues for me are: • No work/life balance • Bullying behavior from Managers - especially in the NurseWise division • Lack of responsible oversight from HR and Executive Management • Lack of training provided • Back-stabbing and favoritism are rampant • Working for a company that built state-of-the-art buildings and successfully took over a large part of Clayton by underhanded means. • Said Buildings, etc. were paid for with Medicaid Dollars. • While accruing time off, there is never a time you can actually take it. You lose it because you can't carry it over to the next year. • Out-dated policies and procedures • No flexibility – hours, dress code, working remotely, etc. • Mentality that employees aren’t to be trusted and are not treated as the professionals they are.
