Pros

Good health and dental insurance, Work supplies were adequate and easily obtained. The office work station was well arranged and comfortable. Coworkers were wonderful but they have all resigned also.

Cons

Extremely poor, incompetent & untrustworthy management. Lack of respect for employees. SC Plan has poor reputation in medical community. Not a place you can say you are proud to work. Time off could be a lot better considering the extra hours worked by salaried employees.

Pros

salary is good, work from home option is nice.

Cons

where to begin? management has no skills, no experience in the field they are managing. unrealistic expectations. no compensation for the 80 hour work weeks you will be having. Centene doesn't appear to even care about the clients, rather only cares about pocketing the money they get from the state. i cannot begin to explain the lies this company has told to its employees, such as the option of working from home, that was magically changed about 2 months into the job. Please look elsewhere and do not work for this company!
