Pros

Centene helping people across the United States get health care benefits. Centene also has great benefits.

Cons

Centene has changed dramatically in the last 2 years. The HR department is cold, all white and hire people in HR who do not meet the minimum qualifications of the positions. No experience in the field but the are promoted to managers and directors. No compassion for the employees. In the last year there have been two lay-offs. People who have been there for years are let go and folks who don't deserve the paycheck they receive are still there.
