Mental Health alert - the ANXIETY and fear of layoffs is astronomical. Employees are stressed out. It’s past 12am & employees can’t sleep. Why??? STRESS and ANXIETY! Attempting to decipher
W T H is going on with this company and decisions of layoffs and offshoring.
Anyone else struggling with this?
A car is meant to be driven. A boat was meant to sail. Wear and tear of life. There's a time for reflection, sanctuary times. Thinking about what's important and what's not. Do you wish to be a US company yes man, or live a life well lived?
what employment "law" in the US empire? there's very few if any real employee rights other than employment at will/whim.
The corrupt survive and dive down UHG reputation. Liars, fakes and corrupt HR who violate the law. These fraudsters cheapen the profession and are threatened by competent, ethical folks. Still under EEOC investigation- submit yours about how HR violates employment law. At UHGs loss, I making several grand more in my new role. Those corrupting the company are supported by HR who violate employment law.
I am aware of current employees who have taken FMLA to deal with their toxic working environments. One of them is currently interviewing and hoping to succeed with her career.
Refreshen up that CV, get a new haircut, teeth brightening, new duds, and listen to positive videos with fake gurus selling the dream. The only dream you need to care abt is YOU. Look out for #1. Don't step in #2. Peace and try not to work for another american publically traded feces house again.
As someone who was laid off a year ago I would counsel you to assume you will be laid off and act accordingly. Spruce up your resume, get your healthcare needs taken care of, reduce expenses if you can, take anything personal off of your computer, connect with people on LinkedIn. You might wait to actually job search, but being ready will ease your mind. If you've been meaning to refi your house or anything... just do it. If you end up keeping your job, you will go forward with a sense of empowerment. No point in just worrying and waiting.
Does anyone think that optum care will be bought back by dahvita or healthcare partner?
Whictman walks away with millions. We walked away with a pizza party and a black and white copied 'certificate' of appreciation....good grief. How dumb do they think us worker are???
Let's see. Mr Wichman gets two years of severance. And he supposedly walked away. Make no mistake about it people, the compensation and HR policies of this company are no where close to consistent. Everybody on this message board is trying to anticipate layoffs?
A truly creditable and fair company would not leave its entire workforce in a state of dismay. Other major employers would be up front, post a sign up board and move the people that want to move out. Instead the fear mongers at the C Suite level flip you the bird every day.
As for those few who like to get on this board and snipe at others expressing their frustration, let me ask, why are you here? If all is so swell, why bother to come to this space? Nope, you know the truth. You are just in denial.
Get a grip. When there's no firing, people come here and complain about it, asking for when it starts. When there is, people come here and complain about it.
If you suffer from "STRESS and ANXIETY! ", go find another job. This is clearly not the place for you.
I felt like this as well. Make a plan for yourself and family. That’s all you can do. The powers that be have all the control so control what you can. Find good support, make a plan, and be confident you can land on your feet. Be well and care for yourself.
Absolutely agree. I woke up, took a sip of water and checked this site. It’s 5am. This is insane.
Numerous peers are using mental health benefits as a result. Taking care of yourself and finding another job is the best thing you can do for yourself and family.
