Pros

Work from home is convenient

Cons

No reimbursement for any WFH items. They used to reimburse some internet subscription then took it away. Gave an additional company holiday, but then pulled back a half-day holiday to offset this. At every single opportunity this company will nickel and dime their employees. When inflation made our annual increases an actual pay cut they just said "whatever, some years the increases are above inflation" and waved away the concern. They send a lot of emails to tell you how much they care though, so there's that!

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.
