      What an odd place

      Pros

      Paychecks don’t bounce. Pay scale is set to LA which is great in Rancho Cordova. There are some really fine people working here. Dedicated, diligent, honorable folks.

      Cons

      As is often the case, technical managers full of unwarranted confidence in their abilities. My current manager is an absolute buffoon who has a very high opinion of his competencies. It’s killing the team’s morale and making us look bad. Given that his greatest skill is taking credit for the work of others and doing exactly what his VP demands, his tenure is assured.

      Pros

      Good Pay and benefits generally

      Cons

      No work life balance. Expect to work weekends and holidays. Since Healthnet IT leadership as taken over work-life balance has gotten much worse (it was already bad). They keep saying "it will get better" - been hearing that for years now - haven't taken time off for Christmas for three years and I have lost vacation because I couldn't use it. Yes, they give you 3 weeks but good luck using it if you work in IT. Another acquisition or another key implementation will always take priority over the lives of IT people. Also not confident the IT leadership can navigate the future. They seem a bit overwhelmed and lost. Lots of corny jokes and lack of professionalism on group conference calls have replaced good solid old-school IT leadership since Healthnet has taken over. I echo other reviews here, we were told Healthnet would follow the Centene way, but we were lied to, Healthnet has imposed their lackluster past performance management style on Centene IT. If you have a young family don't work here - it's not worth the time away from your family.
