Are you going to wait around and see when and if you are lucky enough to take that train ride to the Capitol to get severance, or will you start looking for bread in other districts? Allegedly, layoffs will be happening THROUGH February 2024. That’s... — read more 

I keep reading those under Rich Chong will be affected the most. What departments under him are you all speaking about?

The absolute audacity. Finding out about the layoffs this week through social media. Having employees wait until todays town hall to see what departments will be effected. Most do disgusting display of “humanity” I’ve ever seen. Laughing, jokes... — read more 

Employee engagement survey is delayed and not occurring in October. Reeks of hoping this blows over so. The Company Engagement scores don’t tank. Guess it saves a lot of CAP planning at least.

It's so crazy that people were clapping after hearing that 2000 ppl won't have a job and then started talking about ice cream like nothing happened then later bragged that they will make 16 billion

Disgusting display during today's Town Hall meeting. They planted two people in the crowd to ask softball questions and disabled comments on the zoom call. What a bunch of cowards.

When ex employee health insurance runs out at the end of December. They are offering you one of their 1 Star Health Plans at a bargain price of $800 to 2400 per month during severence period. That will be your out of pocket monthly premium cost.

Are they going pay out any vacation time if we are laid off?

So many of us are worried if we are going to have a job next week and these people are joking about someones favorite ice cream flavor! SERIOUSLY?

Im a customer service rep. I don't know If I will be laid off. They don't tell us

Poor judgement to hold this townhall this week. Should have the townhall a week or so after the layoff. Because l keep thinking what do l care about all of this bs, l do not know if l am going to be a part of this organization as of next week.

The "crowd" is much smaller than normal. A waste to have it at that venue. Could have met in a lunch room at any office. Obviously hand picked audience.

Stop calling us a team when you make 13 million and I can't afford to see my health care providers

Posting a link to the main layoff thread to bring it back to the top. https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1oNUjeJa#OP

is it me or do they all look nervous?

Waiting to see how the poet talks about something that was suppose to be under wraps it'll it was too later for the employees. This will be a great sh-t show.

Do anyone know if this is affecting specific departments or across the board? Is it affecting Billing & Reimbursement in Florida?

I'm sick of this "stay positive, stay productive" BS being spouted by leadership when 66k+ are on pins and needles wondering how we're going to survive financially if we're one of the unlucky ones. I'm one paycheck from living in my car and I know... — read more 

Has this been settled as the layoff date?

Enuf Said for those complaining about c-suite packages are barking up the wrong tree. If you want to change this, send me a message to your senators or representatives or the Governor.

Just a few facts: We, the people, as taxpayers, pay for Medicaid and Medicare companies to exist. Centene settled on an over 200 million dollar lawsuit in the beginning of this year for mistakes that they made. Broken down, that’s over $100,000... — read more

Does anyone notice that C-Suite exits aren’t noted by the CEO to emoloyees? i.e. Anika Gardenhire, Mark Brooks Curious what you think?

It's insane that Centene is laying off IT staff. As a non-IT corporate employee, my perception is that the company is already ghastly under supported by IT. Other large Healthcare orgs have invested significant sums into their IT organizations and... — read more

People are being laid off. It's just surgical cuts instead of a major round.

I wouldn't volunteer, but I know a few people who'd be overjoyed to leave with severance. Why not give them that chance and maybe allow a few people who want to stay and would otherwise be affected to keep their jobs? It would make it so much easier... — read more

Is this even a possiblity? I was planning to leave in January and I'd have no problem quitting right now so someone is saved.
