Business outlook
Pros
Centene, a St Louis-based conglomerate, is slowly understanding and adapting to being an employer in California.
Cons
Centene corporate culture is very cost driven where all programs must deliver margin and growth, often at the expense of meeting customer performance requirements and customer satisfaction. Centene's efforts to develop and promote from within is behind the power curve and currently ineffective, despite much marketing. Many senior leadership and management positions at Centene have been filled by individuals with no health care administration experience. Centene is challenged across many business areas to deliver a functioning work (IT) platform (networks, applications, interfaces).
