Thread regarding Cigna layoffs

Next phase of layoffs may be just by pushing people out in various ways

Maybe traditional severance based layoffs may have paused, but I think mass micro-management based write-ups and corrective action is the next "Phase". I think Cigna is going to leverage the unpopular FOW rules to fire people and save more money by not paying severance, FOW will be the main tool, but they will also use performance metrics and computer monitoring software to look for excuses to fire people.

Also just by making Cigna more toxic, many more people will voluntarily leave which Cigna loves. It saves them more money which David Cordani can pat himself on the back and tell his shareholders all about.

I’m afraid you are right, @zlk+1t8g6DQr.

They are definitely making it worse. There is a travel and non business essential expense freeze right now, so no in person collaboration with team that is far away. No training or learning opportunities that cost money. In our org there is a hiring freeze too and anyone who quits or is laid off will not be backfilled. Which is ridiculous when the company is posting record profits. They just want to squeeze and make us miserable in the process

I don't know anyone that has taken the bait and quit without severance, but nearly everyone assigned to an office, and those just scared of being assigned, are job hunting and getting disability paperwork in, hr has got to be busy.

"My PCP basically told me last week that if I don’t leave asap, the stress of this job will eventually ki-l me. I am in my early twenties. Too young to let such a meaningless job eat away at my health and sanity.

Everyday since January it’s been slammed with b2b calls without any help from leads or supervisors. It really feels like Cigna and Evernorth are making things awful so we will quit. I’m not even an office aligned employee and the working conditions are awful in my own home! Being chained to my desk all day without a moment to catch my breath is getting old. Please fire me @cigna @evernorth may your business suffer drastically"

Some of you guys need to embrace not giving a fu-k. The more work they give you, the less you do. Refuse to work a second over the time you're scheduled. If the job is this awful, being fired may be a blessing. I realize many of you are living paycheck to paycheck and this job market is hot garbage - but every single one of you that won't end up immediately homeless just needs to draw the line and tell your managers that if they need all this extra work done - they're going to have to hire extra bodies. Ask them what the priorities are and tell them "nope" when they give you an unrealistic list. If you are so essential that you're getting blown up nonstop all day every day - they're not going fire you immediately for setting boundaries and refusing to care about the nonstop fires.

Just saying. This sh-t right here is exactly why I live in a cheap tiny house way outside of town when I could have afforded a much better one. The more they threaten me, the less I do. I've been saving every dime since they started this "Wish you weren't alive for 25'" agenda, and I can go manage a damn Wendy's and afford my mortgage for a long a-s time, if I need to.

This is not a job nor a company worth fighting for and at this point being let go would be a blessing.

It would be great to see everyone still at this most toxic place band together on a series of social events to fight for workers rights. Example—organize a date for all to spend most of the day doing something to truly support vitality, and only give Cordani one hour of typical work that same day. Continue a series of organized events until the madness stops or the board replaces Cordani. This is not a smart way, a customer-focused, an ethical, and not even a financially sound..when you think bigger picture and long-term..way to run a company. He’s running it into the ground.

I want to actually see if this company will fire thousands and thousands based on being at 91% adherence for the day or whatever and the almighty Verint. While the higher-ups sit around doing literally nothing all day except go on WebEx meetings and gorge on a bunch of overpriced lunches.
