Pros

There are no pros, you work in the smallest call center in Tucson, with some of the dumbest people you could work around. Racism, favoritism, & a lack of getting any help are all a part of your daily job. The only pro I can think off it getting paid once a week if you work for a temp agency.

Cons

* Bad attitude from management who goofs around 3/4 of their day while ignoring their job responsibilities. * Racism, if you are white you will be frowned upon. This is both from management & employees. * The system they use is continually slow or not working. In comparing this company to others such as Humana,United Health,& Blue Cross they obviously don't care if the members can't find doctors, specialists, or facilities. Using windows 98 is not absolution anymore/ * Lies about when you get raises or could become full time, there is always some hoop you need to jump through to make more money. * Poorly trained management,supervisors, & trainers. ATTITUDE, ATTITUDE, ATTITUDE from all of them who are too busy to help you,let it interfere with their after work life. * You work with people that have little or no experience in a call center, or just don't care. If you are white you are an outcast.

Pros

I loved the work and for 6 years was happy with what I did. I knew I made a difference and did my job well. Not many has the same skill set I did and there was always work to do.

Cons

1. It's an old white boys club. I say that as a white individual. It sucks that's how MFN rolls. They say they value diversity but they don't. They will have a token diverse person in an exec role but they're there to be a face, not make any changes or impact. 2. They pay really well but that hurts when you leave. 3. They layoff the good people and keep the undereducated white males. Why? See #1 above. 4. They don't want you if you are female and over 40. Think I'm lying? See the number of females 40+ who got hit in the January "reorganization." 5. HR is a joke. Talent acquisition couldn't find their rear ends with both hands and a map. So many excuses on why they didn't do their jobs. 6. MFN said the HealthNet employees needed to learn the Centene way and the Centene way would prevail. He lied. 7. They never entertained the idea of working from home. At all. Even a 25% WFH option would cut costs and improve morale.
