Pros
My team has good work/life balance (although not true of all teams) Decent pay and benefits Good location in St. Louis Room to move up in the company and easy to move around the company Coworkers are great
Cons
Other teams, and specifically managers and above on any team, have really poor work/life balance. The burnout comes around quickly. Strict business professional dress code (ties and panty hose are actually included in the official dress code). Difficult to work from home (frowned upon). Company is very disjointed and disorganized. Makes it very difficult to accomplish much. Company culture is very meeting-oriented, which contributes to the lack of work/life balance (spend all day in meetings, still have work to do at night). Managers tend to micro-manage, which impedes productivity and decreases morale. Do not feel that leadership is open or transparent about the current state or future expectations of the company. Do not trust the CEO. Do not feel that Centene focuses enough on its mission to improve the health of members.
