Thread regarding Optum layoffs

22 replies (most recent on top)

We are losing some great employees on 11/13. I hope they find something better. I don't expect anything in terms of raises or bonus for the rest of us next year, just counting down the days until the next big layoff in Optum.

@c3 employed doctors may be slightly cheaper than contracted ones, but it's much harder to regulate up and down. I would be surprised that we don't go all contracted like we do with off-shore strategy.

@OP SH stated in an interview he will get rid of thousands of doctors to increase profits. As of now they are contracted with 80000 and employ 10000. They will be getting rid of the contracted physicians to shrink the network.

In my group I was told complete AI Dojo with a high score (onshore) or you will get RIFd. It’s was also said even with passing/high score no guarantee of staying off RIF list in 2026 (onshore).

11/13? I've heard that date. Today (11/3) doesn't follow a Thursday schedule.
