Thread regarding Optum layoffs

layoffs the real deal this time

In the past, I've seen multiple layoffs, at least in my area, that were really just excuses to eliminate the roles of low performers to repurpose dollars to other areas. This time, there are really strong staff members and leaders being cut. This is a major organizational staff reduction event taking place and it some how gets no media attention.

Chief Medical Oof said today there is a two-year hiring freeze and more changes to be made, “be ready,” but make sure you work hard until we kick you to the curb!
