They’ve been transforming us from a profitable company to one that will be a shadow of itself or broken up.
All business transformation efforts are a waste of money until colleagues and leadership rank-stack priorities so everyone understands wtf is important in unmistakable and non-negotiable ways. Otherwise it’s Mr So and So wants it so we have to do it. Which causes daily damage and misdirection.
Op, which side are you? CVS or Aetna? Aetna creates these "transformation teams" about every two years.
Basically, the Bobs have arrived.
Confirmed by the mention of TPS reports and Michael Bolton below lol.
2 billion saving coming sooner than expected
FYI.

@1btn+1vsTUHEy How is this a lies if it’s part of process improvement that business transformation team?
Got togive it to them, between reorg-ing 1/3 of Aetna to DDAT and then this endeavor, at least we know the layoff strategy from now through March 2025.
All of the responses here are lies
This meeting is bunch of IC from various team in a group setting. I did notice a HR person is included into the meeting. What kind workflow question will they be asking? My department is already running lean not sure how much more we can get
So we're wasting money to have people decide if we are wasting money.
Going to go find a printer and talk to Michael Bolton.
This is absurd.
They "analyze" departments by setting individual observation meetings where they want to shadow you and asks some questions (they may even video record you). Then there's usually a set of survey questions they'll ask. Sometimes the surveys will look like a townhall survey with some key questions. Then they may send out a workflow asking you if they got it right. And then bo-m months later reorg. You might stay but they might take one or two of your team members. They want to see who's talent, and who's redundant and needed somewhere else or not at all. If your team is very metric based chances are you willing lose some reports. If their reports can show redunancy and someone says they can automate your function they'll go for the automation. Good luck I've been through two layoffs and reorgs, none of them proved transformation for the betterment of the company but those PWC people sure did make a sh-t load of money off of the company.
So they layoff the people they have a meeting with or layoff/dump the team base on their analysis ? Look like they choose 1 person per team to join the meeting
They started observing October 2022 and then layoffs and regor September 2023. The government section and network management is huge so yeah in less than nine months they mov d people around and laid people off. Mainly laid-off service ops, health plan ops, and network management PRls. There was reorg prior to and after layoffs, theyhaf justify the creation of MPOs.
PWC observed certain key people, put together some bogus workflow and then created MPOs and called it "operations".
@jgc+1vsTUHEy So it took them a whole year to observe your team before laying off your team? How does that work when all your team is remote?
Ya same happened October 2022 in the health plans, network management, shared services. They came in with PWC to observe us and then next thing we knew reorgs and creation of new departmentPOs then layoffs September 2023.
Basically they think your department needs operationalized for infucency.
What TPS?
TPS reports?
They’re bringing in a consultant - that’s how I know. That’s what this staff meeting is all about! That’s what happened at Initrode last year. You have an interview with a consultant and they bring in efficiency experts. You’re interviewing for your own job!
