Pros

The benefits are fairly good, but they diminish every year. (Last year they discontinued spouse health insurance if they could be covered by another company, no matter how expensive or horrible the benefits were). Co-workers on your same level are typically good to work with and support each other in a team environment with mutual respect and support. Some members of management and executive management are very knowledgeable

Cons

You are managed by intimidation and fear. Although Centene preaches work/life balance, there is absolutely none. The company comes first, not your personal life or family. There is absolutely no "kudos" on a job well done, but plenty of criticism for any small mistake and/or things that happen that are beyond your control. Philosophy - Out with the old/in with the new. Bring in a new "Golden Child", and your job goes away. New blood is the way to go. You will work so many hours and eventually "burn out”. Your physical and mental health will be in jeopardy. (Maybe that is why they now have a clinic on-site) Hidden agendas - Rampant. Management talks out of both sides of their mouths. They will tell you one thing, but completely do something else. HR is a joke. Turnover is amazingly high!

Pros

This company is actually experiencing growth when many companies are struggling. Good Medical, Dental and Vision benefits as well as annual performance bonuses.

Cons

Absolutely No concern for employee's obligations outside of work. Working over a holiday is a common occurrence. Management pretends to care about employees sacrificing family in favor of work but their actions speak to the contrary. Internal customer service is extremely poor. Expect to get the run around if you need assistance from another group/department within the company. Lack of recognition. Any work experience gained outside of this company is ignored.
