Thread regarding Optum layoffs

Im so tired

I have been with this company for five years and waited so long to get into Navi because they actually use to be really selective with who they hire: getting bought out by Optum who in turn got bought out by UHC has been a horrible down spiral and the writing on the wall is clearly seen but with the job market no one wants to take that leap of faith and quit. I am at a lost of what to do. I have never in my life experienced burnout until this year and my god is it fu--ing awful. I love what I do and I excelled at it then this year we went under another pointless restructuring and now I have a supervisor who’s inauthenticity can be seen from space. Which reflex poorly on the team and the people they brought over to ours are just je-ks. They offer one mental health day: always say they will support your career growth but never mention the certifications or classes you can take, leadership is AFK in the chat and these “gimme days” or whatever with the SNF dept only seem to be granted to who’s tongue is in the supervisors butt at the time. Not to mention the mocking emails of how well the company is doing and brown nosing when those surveys come around, which is tomorrow actually! This job has made my mental and physical health take a shape decline and I’m just ready to end it all.

Other states have fmla paid leave. Also, look into short term disability along with the fmla if your state doesn't have this. I'm not knowledgeable on which option is best. People should take this if needed for mental health issues - it's not just for physical health.

Piece of advice as I “was” on the same mental boat months ago - I quit caring. I see this job as an income-generating medium. If you are a care coordinator, log-in, do your reviews, then clock out.

You can filter out what gets in your head. If it really is getting too much, then quit.

Is that only for MN? Do other states not offer it? :(

if you're in MN, check into MN paid leave act starting in 2026. it sounds like this is something that would help you.

Take a look on LinkedIn. That is a lot of experience, a career move should not be burdensome.

It is pretty clear there will be no raises or bonuses for anyone outside the C suite any time soon.
