Pros
Pay, benefits, some nice colleagues
Cons
Slow moving Fortune 100 company that in my division was disorganized and always had an excuse why something didn’t get done. I came in excited and ready to work with my team only to realize this place doesn’t welcome Or appreciate education, experience or ideas. They do hire from within which is commendable but they put people in positions without relevant experience or training and their subordinates and the organization suffer. I was sorely disappointed with the apathy and absolute disregard for the values outlined when you interview and hire on. Centene functions like other government run establishments where they get paid as long as they do the bare minimum while meeting the ethnic quotas. If you like this type of environment, apply. I don’t and feel this organization abuses tax payer monies by having so many non contributing employees and managers, senior managers, directors and so on with minimal productivity who also do the bare minimum but maintain their titles and positions in the company. Proceed with caution here as there may be good divisions but I know some are really messed up. Some people coast and do the minimum but some roles will be expected to give till it hurts with no thanks or appreciation.
