Was it only OptumHealth with the recent round of layoffs? Or broader within Optum? Anyone hear of anything within Optum Insight or Tech? Or UHC?

East Coast (Massachusetts) INSP team. On call team was laid off this morning (7/24/2024) this after the sales team was laid off this year too.
Another round of layoffs July 18. with more to come. It is devastating to the staff and the patients. The writing is on the walls. More to come every quarter. Refresh you resume/CV. You may be next.
What areas within Optum Insight? Change Healthcare, Advisory Services, etc?

Up to 30% of all US employees will be let go in phases through Q2 of this year.
What areas within Optum Insight and E&I? What types of roles and grade levels?
Optum Insight had a bunch. They gutted 14 off my team alone and I suspect aren't done yet. We didn't have many to begin with. Had a few get laid off in November 2023 (week before Thanksgiving) and now last Thursday. No group is safe.
Optum Tech had layoffs, too
I haven’t seen any in E&I, in fact they have been hiring.
I would never be shocked by it though I guess
E&I had a bunch
