Pros

Mgmt listens to feedback from employees and makes visible changes to operations and policies based on employee engagement surveys and break out groups in town hall meetings, etc. Wages market increases and working from home have made them VERY competitive within the industry. LOTS of growth potential in a Fortune 50 company that is less than 40 years old. The sky is the limit for "go-getter" types.

Cons

Was a bit slow to meet demand for work from home permanence when market competitors made the move sooner, but eventually caught up. Multiple acquisitions recently and a CEO change for first time in 25 years can always mean some growing pains. Systems and processes are still catching up to the more established companies; lots of opportunities to remove redundancies, etc.

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.
