Pros

I have a great boss. I have a great team that was hand picked from the best of the best.

Cons

I guess it really depends what umbrella you are under. The group I am under is run by incompetent upper management that constantly makes poor decisions which in turn makes our job nearly impossible to do. Some people are about business and some are about personal feelings, can’t run things when you care more about being right then doing what is right. Centene has no transparency, does not kee their employees informed and does a lot of shady things that make me question their integrity.

Pros

I have to use 5 words - so - Free Parking in Clayton MO.

Cons

There are too many to list... However, for anyone that started around 2012, please ask HR forthe copy of your DL, SSN, card etc. They lost them. When you leave, you sign a document that you won't sue them in order to get your severance pay...
