Just one inch of power in this job market and they have become the mean girls from high school again.
More layoffs happened this week (Dental)
In the U.S. healthcare town hall this week Bryan H. said the “vast majority” of 2026 layoffs were done by Feb. and now they're primarily looking into IFP. Well, there were just more layoffs in Dental yesterday. This is on top of about 15% of our org... — read more
Global Head of Social Media
They hired for this yet laid off the most important people that had teams fall apart. What even is this role?
Are you finding new roles?
Has anyone who was let go in February had success in finding new work? If so, do you have any pointers or resources you found useful? Trying not to get discouraged but it’s feeling impossible in this market
Thread for Cigna US Town Hall - 5/5
What's your take away from the US Town Hall? Observations
Town Hall Megathead
Share your thoughts here. Personally, I so appreciate hearing about our strategy from some dude who has only been here for six months.
RTO
With more and more organizations going to 5-day RTO, I'd expect a mediocre, follow-the-herd company like Cigna to fall in lockstep within the foreseeable future. Evanko's Town Hall comments about the wonders of having a "best friend at work" just... — read more

Cigna to quit health insurance exchanges
What does this mean? TBH doesn't seem like a bad idea if they want to avoid market volatility for now.
Next notice will be May 20
It's posted in the WARN NOTICE that Cigna was going to do lay offs on the 29th yesterday. The next date is May 20th what a Mother's day gift!!!!!
Evicore is getting spun off ? Am I reading the email from Evanko correctly ?
Is there any other way to interpret his somewhat ambiguous message from this morning? "Reviewing strategic alternatives for EviCore"
Goodbye IFP
Did you anyone receive them email that was sent out this morning about Cigna getting rid of IFP plans starting in 2027? What does this mean for our jobs? If Cigna is no longer offering IFP PLANS starting 2027, does this mean employees in that... — read more
Laughing at the new Evernorth Propaganda videos
So you mean to tell me this dude with a degree mill degree all the way in India cares about US patients and US healthcare?
The best advice I sadly ignored
I heard someone say this three years ago, but I didn't listen. I thought things might improve. Instead, they got worse. Now, I've been here five years too long. So let me say it to you now - if you can leave, leave. Take a pay cut if you have to... — read more
PTO auto approval, sign of layoff?
Recently the PTOs are auto approved and not from the manager, anyone noticed this in the past that affected their role?
To Those JE'd on 2/19
Last day of notice is 4/25. I assumed final paycheck (before severance begins) would be on the 5/1 payroll day. I received my direct deposit today which looks like it was my regular bi-weekly pay plus unused PTO (I am in a State that it must be... — read more
Payer Solutions
What’s going on with the payer solutions business? The IT team keeps cranking out assets that are junk and just dump more headaches on ops.
What is going on in EviCore??
It appears that the majority of the doctors were fired and now we can't meet client commitments - or even basic compliance requirements in many cases. Does anyone know what the plan is for EviCore? How is this model sustainable? We're going to... — read more

Are layoffs still going on? (post- Jan/Feb waves)
It appears that layoffs may still be happening in pockets, even though the big waves of January and February appear to be over (for now). Are people seeing any examples of this over the past 2 months? For example, our head of Marketing was let... — read more
PTO payout
I was rif'd in February and I noticed my paycheck was a lot hiring. Looks like they paid out PTO. Anyone else get that paid out? I didn't think they were going to pay PTO because of the new policy that came out last year. Could it be a state rule?... — read more

Belated 2026 thread. How did everyone fare?
Are there more layoffs coming?

Are contractors not being converted to FTE anymore?
I’ve been at Cigna for multiple years now, changed teams to a more senior position and even got a raise but still no FTE. HIH has definitely taken over a lot of my Org as well.
Pulse Survey
Who all got the survey? I’m sure they’re not going to like what a lot of us have to say.
Pulse survey
Anyone know if answering the pulse survey in a less than positive way result in being marked for termination? Kind of feels like a way to identify workers who aren’t “aligned” …
Pulse Survey
Just received an email saying i've been selected to take the Pulse Survey. HARD PASS
