Ever since the Pandemic, this place has been horrible. I am finding it financially impossible to do my job. 100% travel here and they moved my home office to a city 20 miles away. Thats 40 miles per day I’m not getting paid. With gas prices $5 per gallon, it’s becoming impossible to do. I get an 2% raise per year if I’m lucky where in the past 3.8% was the norm. All they talk about is “cutting costs” yet BM lives in NY and commutes to Charlotte. I’ve been through 6 management changes in the past 4 years alone. It’s been micro-aggression after micro-aggression. HR is essentially outsourced in most decisions and they work in call centers in India to give you incorrect information. They are leaning full-in on AI and there is no room for advancement except to be a Merrill salesperson that is 100% commission. There are no jobs. I’m so sad at what has become of this place.

Tech
ITC does nothing because there is nothing for them to do. We’re asleep.. No tech skills and no value. Fire all resilience and GT support managers. Let the vendors do the work. Put money into marketing and design. Quit pretending like tech is adding value.
Tech support managers are the worst. Micro managers with low iq. Our teams give zero sh--s due to the embarrassment of working for these clowns.
Good luck if your manager is H1B
Your manager is waiting for green card. Your manager wants job security. Your manager micro manages you.
Enduring racism and microaggressions at HCSC — and now layoffs?
It'd be weird to be quiet about this.
I’ve endured subtle and not-so-subtle racism in my years at HCSC. Microaggressions. Being talked over. Dismissed. Having to defend my competence, explain my presence, constantly prove myself. I got myself in grippy socks a couple of times due to the stress.
I reported things. I followed the “right channels.” I tried to hold people accountable, not because I wanted to be a revolutionary, but because I thought the company cared and I thought it would/could get better.
And now, as layoffs roll out, I find myself wondering: what was all that for? I fought to stay in a place that never really cared about me. Now I see people being walked out with no warning. And I could be next.
HCSC talks about values, but culture lives in how people treat each other, and how leadership responds when they don't. For many of us, the silence has BEEN loud.
