Thread regarding Optum layoffs

Silence before the storm?

I have a habit of checking the new Optum job postings on a daily basis. It's noon right now and there are usually 40-60 new ones by this time. Today? ZERO. It feels eerie. I wouldn't think much of it but with the context of 7/17 around the corner, it makes me wonder.

286 jobs posted yesterday and today so far - guessing it was a fluke

@a6 I raise backyard chickens, and for the year before I started, I bought books from agricultural stores with glossy images of beautiful chicken setups and happy hens. I called it "chicken p-rn."

@ab Do we know why, any details? Interesting because we‘ve been talking on here about how despite layoffs they’ve been posting new jobs every day. Are they now officially starting a hiring freeze?

This is anxiety po-n. As someone who comes here for information exchange, there are too many people looking for therapy or emotional support. There must be a better way...
