Friends, my gripe is with all this mandatory volunteerism, meeting participation and SELF medical tracking (Sharecare). Wondering why CareFirst went from a place you would go to do 8 hours of good hard work (for pay) to a place where you are heavily encouraged to join some ARG group, pledge United Way, volunTOLD to clean nasty alleys & vacant lots, attend town-hall meetings and gosh forbid you not participate in the infamous CEO “live” 5 3 1 meetings 😂😂 (what a joke!) and oh yeah, don’t forget you still have to do your 8 to 10 hours of actual work. JeezLouise!
Honestly millennial CEO, I would love to see CareFirst work environment return to the days of when your main concern was to come to work and do actual work on behalf of our members, beneficiaries and medical providers. At least that’s what I was told...
To work for CareFirst is simply that TO WORK - that’s all I need. I mean really, we are all grown people with outside lives far more important than putting on a façade of making my CAREFIRST work be my “all be all” or being a community first company - - I think people would prefer health insurance access, mental health services and lower medical cost - not necessarily clean alleys or painted walls.
I know, I know - go find another job right? Then this post is not for you. It’s for those of us that are deep in our CAREERS at CareFirst and don’t want to start over or are to old to start over - trust me, you’ll be where we are one day too. So to those people (my people): how can we express this message to leadership (without getting put on the chopping block)?
What are your thoughts? Can we get back to work now?
