Quite sad 2 layoffs in less than a year. Company blames it on COVID but ship was sinking way before the virus showed up.

250 in the US and 250 "off shore" that makes 500 total - not 250 total. That is a fact written in a company email.

250 layoffs yesterday... disguised as virus related. would have happened anyway

Benefitfocus will gamble on new markets and eliminate sales positions across the Northeast, Mid Atlantic and South. The reputation in these current markets is extremely negative

Benefitfocus is looking to get out of selling directly to companies. Will focus on the carrier side. Expect a massive layoff before the end of the year.

Last year we had mass layoffs, I hear they are laying off again.

Benefitfocus laid off 1/3 of its sales and operations in August. Hush money was paid to them so they wouldn't have to acknowledge layoffs. One month pay per year of service in severance.
