With rumors of potential layoffs in December, what areas of the company do you think they’ll target or if there will be layoffs in general?
Should have purchased more blues plans instead.
With some these cash strapped independent blues plans, you think the board is regretting the Cigna acquisition? Could have had blue licenses in Minnesota, Michigan and others, probably for far less than 3.5 billion too.
Health Spring sales performance?
When will the company share sales performance and financials for the new brand?
Workday
Does anyone else think it absolutely su-ks? Seems like it is always down.
I thought this site was for those laid off!
So for all of yall who still have a job, do you want to trade places with me!! Yes it su-ks!!! But you have a job...I don't!!!!
Can we get a MyLearning course that teaches what competitive packages are to the ELT.
So out of touch.
2 day a week RTO report.
Has anyone seen this report? What is all on it? Is it a yearly average? Does it show login/logout etc? What have you been told on it?
Maurice with the major Jeb Bush Energy this townhall
Feel free to use this thread to discuss the strong town hall presentation from our leaders. Please Clap!
Town Hall Question
Previously our department was allowed to attend Town Halls or watch recording at a later date, we were not required to work while attending or watching. It appears now we are to continue working while we attend or watch. Interested what other ... — read more
Want to know why hard workers keep getting let go since ITOM?
Check out the link below to read a story from a whistleblower. This is exactly what has been happening at HCSC since ITOM in 2017. Don't believe me? Take a look at the ORG chart sometime and tell me this isn't happening. There has been a replacement... — read more
Anyone interested?
Hello, I am a current hcsc employee and I have been on FMLA the past 2 years. Here lately I have been hearing and seeing some concerning things surrounding my fellow coworkers with FMLA as well. I have purposed lawsuits at this time. Most of them... — read more
RTO
So… brace yourselves 😬 I just got word from a very reliable source, Friday’s Town Hall is reportedly going to be about RTO… four days a week. Yep. You read that right. Four. Days. Consider this your early warning Not thrilled (at all) about this... — read more
It's infuriating to watch
This place is full of people who would su-k up to a potted plant if it meant a promotion. They can’t do the work, they don’t care about anyone else but themselves, but somehow they’re moving up while those of us who are doing the actual work get... — read more
$71,114.01 in legal fees?
I read the notice about HCSC complying with 215 ILCS 5/10 (7)(h) to notify its members of paying $71K in legal fees… so they are required to disclose this.. and my interpretation is a senior director/executive was involved in a lawsuit, regulatory... — read more
COBRA and Laptops for Those Recently RIF'd
I wanted to see if it is me or if HCSC is really that disorganized in getting these two items taken care of for those of us that have been recently RIF'd. I am a REMOTE worker who was RIF'd back on 9/24/2025. I was curious if there are others... — read more
API changes
Received a townhall invitation from our division that there will be changes to API structure. Did anyone hear anything?
Town Hall on Friday when employees could be out of office? Sus.
Can't wait to see what Uncle Maurice tries to hide.
Townhalls Predictions
What do you think will be addressed at today's townhall? What do you think will happen?
Age Discrimination?
Curious about the age of everyone who was recently let go.
PTO Disparity
Just when youthink HCSC can’t go any lower it does!! 😱😱😱 if you are mid professional and have been at HCSC under five years and live in Illinois good for you, you get three extra days a year. But for those that live in Texas and other states, you... — read more
No more Medicare Blue brand in the 5 states!!! HS only!!
Did we hear Stephen correctly say HS brand wins, no more Blue Medicare?
New grads- sc--w experience!
Anyone notice new grad job postings with salaries $130k- $180k??? For new grads??? But we can those with experience and knowledge.
New PTO policy is a slap in the face for that live in Texas.
New PTO changes - Most employees will not see any changes to their PTO accrual minimums or PSWD carryover maximums, and no employee will have fewer PTO or PSWD as a result of this change. · Illinois- and Nevada-based employees will have... — read more
When do you think will we get paid?
I was a part of the RIF that occurred at the end of September. I signed my severance agreement and then received an addendum saying I would not receive a lump sum, but would receive biweekly payments. Do you think this will occur on 10/17 or will I... — read more
What floor does the C-Suite sit on?
I’ve always wondered which floor is the exec floor at the Chicago HQ. It used to be 15 but that floor is currently being renovated I think.
Transition Support is a joke
Anyone else feel like they're getting the run around? Emails are not helpful and calling gets you no where. Has anyone gotten information on how to return equipment?
Does Maurice know…
…what a colossal failure he is as a leader?
Workday tasks
Received workday tasks this morning. Self evaluation (which feels weirdly early) and another about updating your veteran/disability status? Maybe I’m freaking out for no reason but is this a sign of anything
Does the company monitor productivity?
I’ve noticed some people seem to have a lot of flexibility like taking walks, longer lunch breaks to go to the gym, playing pool, or spending time on their phones. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, it’s great they have that balance but I’m just... — read more
More layoffs coming soon
Who is coming with me?
HR Org Change Firm
Is BCBS is actively working with a consulting company that assisted with the previous round of layoffs? If so who?
Update on why you never see the CEO
I just spoke with DAS. Back in June 2022 it looks like they uploaded Maurice to the cloud. This explains the robotic answers, the bad writing and his inability to read. It also explains any future attempts to automate your work and work we so that... — read more
Texas Work Force Solutions Denials
Is WFS even taking the time to read people's requests for accommodations? They are denying people with no explanation. How many cases are being sent straight to the trash can?
Town hall - oh goody!
Oh boy oh boy! The band of butt clients will be there for Maurice’s town hall. I can hardly wait for his expressive reading of his slide deck and spinning his excellent work at saving the company with layoffs!

Roth 401k
In 2026, will HCSC offer a Roth 401k as the result of the Secure 2.0 Act, which requires catch up contributions for high earners be made only to a Roth 401k. Here we are in Q4 and I haven't heard anything yet. I believe if no Roth 401k option is... — read more
I feel like more is coming ...
With the org chart still being offline & a combo with my boss in my 1:1 where they said "don't be surprised if we see more impacting our department"
Armed Security in Chicago
For the last couple of weeks there has been at least one armed security guard in the lobby in the Chicago building. He’s tall and wears regular clothes with a black jacket zipped halfway but if you pay attention you can see the outline of a we-pon on... — read more
