Thread regarding Cigna layoffs

band 5 part time CR

@bh not true

We’re going to have a meeting later hopefully it will not turn south

Got the email this morning and then a few hours later they gutted our team. A few of us are still left behind but now with much more work and no one cares that we were already drowning before this happened. I will be actively looking for a new job.

I was not a high paid employee. Just average. But I worked hard. Four people on my team were cut. None of it make sense because it leaves a huge deficit to certain job types. The only thing that's for certain is there will be more change. After my many years of service here I am angry to be so disregarded. I turned down the voluntary early retirement So instead they lay me off? I wonder how long it will be before there's a class action suit

@bk someone posted it under another thread on her
Go look at thread called
Anyone able to share email from Kari?

18 in NA.

@bh I work at Cigna and did receive anything alerting to this layoff
\

Can someone post the email, i didn't receive it

@bg yes clinical reviewer (RN), and cardio

@aw all employee received it impacted or not

@bb when you say CR do you mean clinical reviewer and if so, what department is this in?

Everyone I know that has left this company is way better off either thru layoffs or voluntary. Not just a little better of but a lot. I feel bad for those that have stayed or are staying. If you get canned use this time to get what you want. Cigna does offer decent severance I’ll say that much better than 95 percent of those out there. This is your wake up call and a blessing trust me. Get to work.

Anyone working for Cigna iCSA? JE?

@a7 what org or department?

@a3 all FTE did

eviCore CR here. I got the cut this morning. 6 years service. No warning at all. Our team’s manager was also let go, believe she had been here around 20 years.

@b7 area is a broad word.

What about behavioral ops working the crisis line, was expecting big fallout here, but the day is young.

Based out of the US (other BoB) and also received the email. Wonder if global teams are also affected

Every area will be impacted. No one is safe. My heart goes out to everyone impacted.

does anyone know what criteria was used for cuts?

@b1 no our entire company (allegiance) received it and they said we’d have no impacts but there is “continued pressure to reduce cost”

The email read like AI wrote it, they should get rid of her role first.

Does anyone know if this impacts folks who are already impacted by HIH elimination for Q3?

HR email this morning-Evicore Project Manager. Thanks for the happy new year, Cigna.

@b0
Does that mean if someone gets it then either the employee or his team is getting impacted ?

@ax many didn’t get it - ftes and contractors

It appears to soooo silent everywhere..

@a7 I’m so sorry.

@aw the entire company got it - that does not mean you’re impacted

@ak I saw it opposite. Those getting the email are getting it bc those teams will be impacted.

i heard a whole nurse quality team was cut

i wonder how many people got hit today. It seems today might be the bigger round out of the next few weeks? anyone up there in ranks that can offer some insight?

@a3 What teams?

@a7 hi where are you based?

Seems like highly paid, high talent are first to go. They want to save money pretty badly and think offshoring is the solution.

@am I’m guessing it’s FTE, I’m a contractor without that email

@ak its not from the HR team

The email from Kari went to everyone, company-wide
