Pros

Centene is vast, your experience is largely dependent on your team. As someone on the BTS (business technology solutions) side, I enjoy it. You get the opportunity to work on some pretty cutting edge stuff. Cyber is well funded and the company recognizes that value we bring, even though we cost them a lot of money.

Cons

Get hired for as much as possible, unless you are promoted, you can expect the typical 2-3% annual raises.
