Uh oh
What does it mean if multiple people in your department got an invite for next Wednesday saying Strategic Update from leadership do not forward?
I landed an offer in an unrelated industry
Insurance too. The pay is lower, but it promises to be less stressful and more predictable. I just hope I won't be disappointed and find that it's not as advertised. I'm mid-career now, and I really don't want to deal with health insurance ever... — read more

Efficiency Quagmire
Has anyone else noticed that doing the most basic things at this company take a herculean effort? Even sharing ideas, giving instructions, and having people reading your emails properly somehow turns into a mess.
Not sustainable
The RIFS are out of control. The American job market is in bad shape and its not just Elevance. Pretty much every industry is in shambles. I'm not sure how this is sustainable as a country. If anyone is aware of any industries that are doing well... — read more

Layoffs
Can somebody provide more info on layoffs that happened this week? Is it real or are people trolling? If true, is it still happening?
Is this a 3rd party company now !
Elevance has officially going down hill. So many offshoring to the Philippines and India,Carelon global solutions has taken over this company. How many people are still here in the states Vs offshored .
This has been in the works for years
After being here almost 20 years looking back I now see that this was their plan all along. To start an official offshore company "LEGATO" now known as "CARELON" get it up and running so that it could eventually take over for a fraction of the... — read more

Is this forum private and confidential?
I have noticed that several immigration related threads were deleted from here. Is there a community posting guideline? Or does Elevance management have some pull of this site?

Low Morale and not interested in anything here anymore
Seeing these RIFs , have completely lost interest in showing up to work. Just want the day to get over even before it starts . Never had this feeling working here the past 15 years
Any suggestions of good companies hiring remote nurses?
I’ve been here 6 years and I can’t take the daily worry anymore of possible RIFs. I’m a single mom with 3 young children. Feels too risky to stay anymore.
Looking elsewhere
Does anyone know of any other good companies hiring nurses for UM review? I’m just nervous that this is going on basically everywhere. Tired of the offshoring and feeling like my job isn’t secure.
Why isn't it "last one in, first one out? anymore"
It used to be that, if cost reductions were truly necessary, the most recent hires were the first to go. That’s clearly not the case now. Instead, newer employees seem to be safe, while those who’ve been here the longest are the most at risk. How is... — read more

They will not stop until most of our jobs are offshored
If it were possible, they would keep only themselves here and eliminate every one of us. We’re too costly, and they don’t care about the quality of work. Since they can’t realistically achieve that, they’ll get as close to it as they can. I don’t... — read more
