Working at Anthem has taken its toll on me. Lay-off half the team and the rest are left to pick up the pieces with the same performance expectations as before. You do the work of 2-3 people and yet your pay grade has nothing to show for it. Even if... —  read more 

I am questioning the Ethics reporting process. I made a report and getting follow up is becoming extremely difficult. What about the Ethics Survey? Does Anthem EVER take action? Many associates have experienced racism and a manager very clearly made... —  read more 

Has anyone seen any movement towards terming staff who are not vaccinated?

My calendar has a Quarterly All-Associate Town Hall meeting scheduled for today. Nothing but dead air.

It’s in my best interest to improve my job performance, but that seems like a mission impossible. How to improve job performance when you have more and more work to do almost every day? The quality of work is inevitably deteriorating.

Imagine ignoring natural immunity and mandating a vaccine that puts your employees with prior infection at risk and for no reason. An antibody test confirms protection. It is negligent not to offer that as an alternative. You talk the talk; it’s... —  read more

Anthem, United among major insurers behind on payments to hospitals - https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2021/10/05/anthem-united-major-insurers-behind-payments-hospitals-covid/5997173001/

Wonder what is behind all this, the unspoken, ominous mystery.

I hear Samir Rao, Chief Operating Officer of Ozy Media, is looking for a new job. Anthem IT leadership should do whatever necessary to recruit him. He has demonstrated the type of skills and ethics that are highly prized in our organization and he... —  read more 

And yet I'm still too scared to take that final step. I have a feeling I'll be stuck here forever and it'll only be my own fault.

"Thanks for all the service you do for our customers, and our stock options! As each of you die a little inside every day, our pockets get lined just a little bit more! Just know that in 5 years our CEOs and uppers will get to retire while you slave... —  read more 

Yeah ME!

People Leaders? Is that really what we're referring to managers and directors as now? Sounds like something that you'd hear coming out of China. The company probably paid some consulting firm a few million to come up with that after a 9 month... —  read more 

No one is complaining at the rate anthem employees are and they have much LARGER employee sizes. Huge red flag.

I have become very anxious since rumors appeared that there could be cuts before the end of the year. I work hard, I try to do my best because I really care about keeping my job here for a while longer. It doesn’t matter what I think of the company... —  read more 

It’s true other places in health insurance can suck but I think the problem with anthem is different. There is too much generational power, almost zero internal innovation, and a very strict grip by leadership on personal development( due to power... —  read more 

I wish that I started looking for a new job before I began to manifest psychosomatic ailments suffered from stress here. Unfortunately, this company never has enough, it doesn't stop squeezing people till the end. It would be interesting to... —  read more 

I left Anthem after 7 years. I have over 20 years of Configuration experience and I still question how configuration is to be completed for Medicare. The department I was a part of, was extremely chaotic. More time was spent trying to get the... —  read more 

I can’t believe this is now a company I used to love working for and where I stayed even though I once had the opportunity to move to another company for a better job. And what does that loyalty mean to me now? Nothing. To have to look at obvious... —  read more 

Are we looking at more cuts any time soon?

For some it is much better, but I also know a few people who have regretted leaving here because in other companies they also have issues, just a little different.

I have to say, I'm not encouraged by what I've been seeing. There are lots of open positions but none offer decent pay and especially benefits. I can see why most of them stay open for a while, who'd want to accept something like that? Luckily, I'm... —  read more 

Noticing some posts being deleted

I worked for the company I left because it was very disorganized, and then I came to Anthem where the situation is even worse. Why does everything here have to be such a mess? Is there a way for things to get better?

Will you get your vaccine if FDA approved? the thread shows that now everyone is obsessed with the vaccines, as if other problems in this company do not exist. I respect everyone's concerns, but at the moment I don't get to think about vaccination... —  read more 

Unbelievable. I have been getting more and more work for months now. As if that wasn't enough, I got even more yesterday. Those who work hard are in the worst position here. If you work hard, you will get more work to do. When is it enough? Is this... —  read more 

How long did it take you to forget about this ridiculous company? I wasn’t happy with many things, but it wasn’t until after I left here that it became clear to me how terrible this place had been. I've been in a new company for a month now and... —  read more 

I'm sick and tired of certain management members being allowed to use bullying and intimidation as a management method day in, day out without any repercussions. It's destroying morale and affecting productivity. I was considering approaching HR... —  read more 

Those of us RFI’ed In July, there’s a contracting company being used to bring some of us back to help clean up the back log and finish training our replacements. Can you imagine the mess?

Full US Food and Dr-g Administration approval of the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine is "imminent." A Biden administration official said approval of the two-dose vaccine "could be as early as Monday."

Idk about anyone else but the NEW YORK claims team does NOT help with growth. They have their picks believe me. They don’t want to train you but tell you that you should know certain things. If I wasn’t trained on Medicare/Medicaid why would you tell... —  read more 

A good number of the best people are leaving and nobody seems to care. I watch daily as knowledge and experience walk away and instead of trying to keep them, the upper management is happy they are saving money on their pay without having to pay them... —  read more 

When the system(s) are down, why aren’t the managers sending out emails? Pretty sure if PULSE or pulse apps are down it should be an email going out. That’s why inventory is a hot mess.

Anyone know if LR is really retiring in 2022 or being forced out to bring in more executives from UH?
