@jz whoever said this: Compliance, privacy legal and security ESRO is where initial ideas fail.

So true

The company’s cash poor. They don’t have any money they can liquidate hence all the selling. They sold Ban America or trying for a billion. They bought it for over 2 billion.

We will start layoffs when last one ends. That was the old CEO LR during global town hall many years ago before Covid. His mentor is back, SH so you know what to expect. Don’t get comfortable unless you are ok getting laid off. There is so much fat in this company hidden in meaningless strategies and teams (most know this) with their useless PowerPoint decks. We are a land of failed health care strategies and we cannot get in the way of each other due to duplicate teams across our IT, security and business teams. Most fail due to not getting in the way or supporting each other. Compliance, privacy legal and security ESRO is where initial ideas fail. Mostly due to latter with Chicken Little mentality. Across UHG we have duplicate teams setup for internal funding and competition. It’s great way to setup silos and teams fighting to undermine each other

@jc a friend of mine is per diem for house calls. Will those people be cut on 7/17, and what about other areas of home and community?

  1. Rifs will always be at the beginnimg or end of a quarter.
  1. If you're still with Landmark, you're setting yourself up for complete sadness.
  1. Optum will always get away without WARN notices because they generally keep you on payroll just long enough after your notice to avoid it.

@e0 they will continue to post jobs until UHC tells them not to. Houston had a delta in the market doing admits for landmark several weeks before they closed Texas. Texas market was told in January they would be doing a pilot med program but then in April they told us Texas was closing.

@bn Puerto Rico's min wage is $10.50. If they wanted to hire cheap Spanish speakers, they could do it in US states paying $7.25 or farm out to Mexico.

@ax oh no. July and August are great times. Lots of layoffs in the past years all to be replaced by Phillipines.

@an for that number 20k a WARN filing is required. Even split among several states it would still trigger at least one. Or are these offshore layoffs?

Over on UnitedHealth layoffs: Someone mentioned UHC & Optum corporate level layoffs today, June 25th. ~6 people or so.

Saw another post mentioning 20k layoffs to come.

Sadly, pattern points to continuing layoffs.
