Would not be surprised if upper echelon is bailing (re selling stocks at faster rate) re Amazon/oracle of Omaha etc raising trillions to start new health care enterprise.
Time will tell. Usually companies don’t put out defensive emails if they don’t have to.

That same garbage was said all last year. Leaders in this company are padding their pockets at the expense of people who helped make this company! Burn in hell

lol they always hide behind were trying to make healthcare more affordable for our members. Do they think anyone actually buys that. Yes more affordable on the back of the employees doing the work for said members quality experience. The truth, its because they are not making enough profit for shareholders and wall st. They could give two c-aps about members at that level. They are a means to an end and that is it.

It’s to increase margins for shareholders. Globalization pressures...
