Thread regarding Elevance Health (Anthem) layoffs

Open letter to those in charge

Dear C suite executives,

🖕🏻

Sincerely all of us p-e on’s you pretend to care about.

Union is coming. It’s time. We’re done.

You take away our bonuses, our benefits, and flexibility. You treat us as a number, see what happens when a group of numbers combine.

Discretionary effort is what gets the job done without a budget or timeline … gone are the days of discretionary effort. RTO is not going to improve company performance because lack of supervision is not the problem. The problem is poor decisions and actions by the c-suite. I will no longer be on calls at 5am (because it’s 8am on the East coast), that’s valuable sleeping time … you know since I’ll be stuck in traffic to get to the office. I’ll have to stop right at 5, too. You know I have to drive home and that evening traffic….and that will end my day. 60+ hours a week (including weekends) will now be 40.

@a1+1jt1tq3vm - We actually did that in 2013, with very little impact. Love that idea, though, I'd like to see how it works now.

To the OP…. Talk to the couple dozen remaining union members from Carelon BH in Michigan. A couple hundred strong years ago, being dismantled down to a couple dozen today. Powerless.

Dear Hellevance leadership,
Your entire company despises you. You constantly spew empty corporate reasoning for RTO, making some people who earn next to nothing drive a freaking hour one way to your soul su-king offices. No one gives two sh--s about their work now. No one will sit at home on the weekend and jump on the computer to finish a few things or get a head start for the week. No one cares anymore. You’ve driven morale, bonuses, pay, and a desire to help this hideous company thrive straight into the ground. Your employee retention is appalling and your slogan about “improving the health of humanity” is laughable at BEST. You’ve now forced working mothers to secure already outrageously priced childcare, you’ve forced those who don’t succeed in an environment where there is constant chatter and background noise back into a 4x4 cube, you’ve pushed people to uproot their families in order to survive. You have no clue what real talent is because you’ve RIFF’d honorable, hardworking people while hiring from the outside a few weeks later. Your Town Halls are complete nonsense and we all gather afterwards to laugh at how out of touch you are. The fact that you are forcing a RTO, and making individuals choose a Monday or Friday speaks to how much you just don’t care. But yet, you still expect your faithful employees to sacrifice their mental health by forcing Career plans, career development, projects, PAC support, double the workloads, reduced pay, reduced AIP, cr-ppy benefits, learn this/learn that, volunteer, etc. The list goes on and on. But, you “couldn’t do it with out us” right? BTW, no one, and I mean absolutely NO ONE is buying the Forbes “Best Places To Work” accolade. We all got a great laugh out of that one! We’d all like to see a clean sweep of your jobs and will gladly celebrate the day that happens. How does it feel to constantly sh*t on your employees? I’m sure a free snack will fix this for everyone.

They don’t even care about us
They are power people
They already have their millions in pockets

For themselves and their next generation they have enough money to survive

The only thing that will bite them staff vp and above is karma

Some day- wait n see
