Pros

Growing company and great benefits. Offices are very nice. Yearly bonuses and salary increases. Large Nationwide company allowing for relocation options.

Cons

Essential components of quality and integrity have been lost over the last several years. Leadership is more concerned about pushing numbers and visibility to corporate than training and development of staff or providing quality services. Employees are treated as robots. Poor employee satisfaction- employee complaints, HR involvement, and resignations are the norm. Little respect for your time- meetings are consistently scheduled only mins before and everything seems to be “URGENT” making it difficult to know how to prioritize tasks/projects. Work expectations are communicated poorly and often with contradicting directives. Upper Leadership is punitive and talk about employees negatively.

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.
