Layoffs are starting back up

They are not done laying off. Clinical Performance will take a hit next then others will follow. They are trimming the fat otherwise known as middle management. Karma comes to those who least expect it. Peace Out!

Mandated overtime

My department requires we work overtime every week. Has been 1 extra hr a day and now it’s 2 extra a day. How is this legal? It’s for “business needs”, but we have been in overtime since January. Anyone else dept doing this? Working from home as a... — read more 

Recovery from UHG

I quit during the pandemic. It was nice to give them a big F U! I thought I would leave and be free of the emotional distress. It’s taken me months to recover and I didn’t even know I needed time. Today, I can’t handle stress. I can’t do... — read more

My position was eliminated April 2021

My position was eliminated April 2021. I had just received an exceeds expectations performance review and a nice raise only to be blindsided 2 months later with a layoff. Why is the company letting go of an employee who performs well? Doesn’t make... — read more 

It’s going to take awhile

Why is this the case?

The worse the company treats the employees, the more layoffs we have, the higher the stock gets. I understand that layoffs and reductions in benefits reduce costs - something investors love - but employees are those who are providing the services... — read more

Wishful thinking?

Shameful but true

At most of the companies experience gained by years spent there is valued and rewarded by the leadership. Not here. The longer you’ve been here the bigger the chance of you being laid off with no warning. They don’t see experience, all they see is... — read more

Are you prepared?

I’m still safe but I don’t care if they let me know about the layoff very soon or at the end of the month. I have been preparing for a long time because it is clear that the company is slowly sinking. A colleague who was convinced that his position... — read more

Anyone regretted complaining to HR?

I know that HR is not there only because of the employees, but because of the company, but I still have a few minor problems in my relationship with a colleague that I can’t solve. I have a feeling that even though the person who is causing the... — read more 

cutting out middle management

The past couple of weeks have had many managers and supervisors eliminated to "focus" more on consumer needs??? Without a middle layer of leaders between the workers and the VPs, you have no source close to the daily strife so how are these... — read more 

Is anyone currently experiencing this?

In my department there is a manager who shows extreme favoritism towards certain coworkers. It's obvious that we are not treated equally. It’s pretty unsettling to watch this on a daily basis. I know I should keep my head down and just keep quiet and... — read more
