Imagine a healthcare company laying off clinicians....they area doing the important patient-member clinical education work and yet are underpaid and the first targets for lay offs. When sales and account management staff make >$350K per year, it would seem likely they might be the most vulnerable. But nope! Anthem lays off nurses. In fact they laid off 1/3 of the NICU case managers in February. SMH

I don't think they want us. They certainly don't make anyone feel wanted. I think many would take a pay cut for job stability.
@ZnBOG9n-2xto congratulations, happy for you!!! Best of luck :)
@ZnBOG9n-2jhk i was speaking with a coworker the other day, and we figured it out. They pay just enough to keep us around, because they know they have us then (because looking for other employment will result in a pay cut).
Hi @ZnBOG9n-2xto ... good for you .. I myself is also looking for new employment outside Anthem which as everyone knows have become a very stressful place to work. However, most of the openings I can see outside will be a major pay cut so at the moment I am stuck until I get my number called by Anthem. So my choices at the moment is ride it out with Anthem or bail out now with a pay cut ...
I accepted an offer from another company this week, I feel like a weight has been lifted. Dealing with the constant dread and stress of looming layoffs and all the stupid changes Gail has implemented was just too much. I wish you all the best out there, there's a better life outside this miserable company.
This is really stressful ... how much more can we take ...
Today is 6/4. It's starting. Clinical was notified of leadership changes. (1) person is out. Guessing more to come.
Just avoid quick calls with your manager on 6/6. Thursday’s are the day !
