All the labor arbitrage is short term with AI looming large. Cigna and other fortune 500's won't need their massive workforce as AI replaces much of what everyone does. HIH made sense in 2010 but there isn't enough runway now. Stop the madness. ... — read more 

You can look it up on the SEC website. Here is the PDF Cigna filed: https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0001739940/000173994025000015/ci-20250314.htm Some interesting finds: "Returned $8.6 billion to shareholders through share... — read more 

Look at the list of wrongful acts Cigna has been sued for. This is why they are laying off. Gotta cover those losses right? Don't believe David or Bryan addressed any of these in any meeting? Millions upon millions paid by this company for doing... — read more 

You can feel the lack of honesty in every meeting. It is clear that profit came first and people are just numbers. No trust, no stability, and no real support from the top.

I can’t make sense of the flurry of org announcements today. It seems to just be a bunch of senior leaders swapping roles. Can anyone explain what the point of all of this was?

For those who left this place through forced exits, I often read here that people land somewhere with better pay. I don't know how true that is in this current economy. I landed somewhere, but one income won't suffice. So I'm working and I am in what... — read more 

Leadership doesn’t give a damn about us. All they care about is squeezing every ounce of value out of each one of us, then moving on to someone cheaper and, preferably, more obedient. As long as the top execs and shareholders are happy, that’s all... — read more

During the town hall you could hear how much it pained DC to tell us how much "he" spends on benefits for "us", as if it's a burden. He did the same thing last town hall. He cannot wait to replace us with cheap labor or AI so he can crow to Wall... — read more 

They want military effort for fast-food pay, then wonder why morale’s in the toilet. How about they try leading instead of lecturing? We’re not lazy, we’re just tired of carrying managers who forgot what real work looks like.

can anyone shed light on what's being discussed in these meetings??

Oh boy

First I’ve heard of this in years

Go to the "USE-T_Contractors+Employees webex chat and it looks like the 74 "newest USET colleagues" have names that would suggest they are hired from the Hyderabad, India (HIH) office?

…what is the next move? Will they offer the exit incentives to a slightly younger group? Will they offer incentives based on years with company? Will they forget about layoffs and give everyone a raise?

It never ceases to amaze me how sleazy this company is. They sent out a "special incentive " retirement option to 3500 employees 55 and older. It was sold as a special opportunity for years of service a d dedication. It's the same thing as if you got... — read more 

In the VRP FAQs it asks why is Cigna offering VRP. The answer is ‘This is a transformational time for our company’. Does any one have any more details on this transformation?

Anyone has an insight on Charles DeShazer sudden retirement plans? He is the Chief Quality and Health Advocacy Officer.

Sounds like you will get your chance! I heard rumors of voluntary retirement packages coming soon. Anyone know if this is true? Would it pay out severance too if I was planning on retiring this year anyway?

Is DP going to be the permanent CIO soon?

Why get emotionally invested in a company that’d replace you before your desk is cold? I do my job, collect the paycheck, and clock out. The extra stress isn’t worth it when leadership clearly doesn’t care.

I was laid off several months ago too. Looking back, I realized I had gotten too comfortable doing the same job at Cigna for years. Over time, I was pulled into so many unrelated projects that were far beyond the scope of my role, and I was underpaid... — read more 

Google Cigna Jobs and Evernorth in Hyderabad. Then start updating your resume. If you or someone on your team is training HIH individuals, it’s NOT so they can back you up. It’s so they can replace you at a discount.

I’m a 29‑year‑old claims analyst with a bachelor’s in health sciences, been at Cigna 18 months. While benefits are solid, the expected 10–15 hr unpaid OT weekly is too much. At first, I powered through, but now burnout hit hard. Are others feeling... — read more

everything is going to fall apart - literally.

I left this place after 14 years, and it broke my heart to see how far it had fallen. When they outsourced so many positions, everything got slower and sloppier. What’s worse is how leadership pretends it’s all going great despite all the evidence to... — read more 

Anyone has a bigger pictures of it ? Out of 65 K employees, in next 5 years how many will be HIH ?

It’s not just the major rounds - they’re cutting teams all the time. A little off the top here, some layers there. If this keeps up, there won’t be anyone left to do the job by year’s end.

Is this a new thing everyone is having to complete on workday to update job profile, career interests …. I saw the words succession plans and wondered if it means a big layoff is coming and they are now trying to see who is worth keeping and moving... — read more

I just saw a news article about changes to Section 174 of the tax code. It was passed in 2017 but didn't go into effect until 2022. It greatly reduces the tax deduction for R&D, and at least according to the article, is the real cause of the big tech... — read more 

Holey moley, phone and chat support must have been a disaster!

I thought it would hit me hard when it happened. Instead, it feels like a ton of bricks has been lifted off my back. I don’t care what happens next. I just care that I’ll never have anything to do with this place again.
