More cuts

Any idea when the cuts will start up again? I know we're in the clear for now, but let’s be real, this break isn’t gonna last forever. Just wondering how long we’ve got.

Where’s the breaking point?

You can only go so far with cuts alone. Unless they actually take action on the business side—and I mean really take action—we’ll reach a point where cuts will outweigh any efforts to turn the ship around.

I don't feel relieved

I know I should feel relieved since I still have a job, but that doesn’t seem like a positive anymore. My workload has grown heavier after every round of layoffs, and I have no doubt it will happen again now that we’ve lost more people. I’m already... — read more

Does Highmark have a Non-Compete Agreement?

Does anyone know if are you able to leave Highmark and work for say Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida or work for Optum? I searched within the intranet and not able to see anything. I would ask HR, but I'm not sure if that is a wise thing to do.

Future of Highmark, enGen

Hi, with constant layoffs, how do you realistically see the future of Highmark and enGen. Are we really not making $$ and outlook is bleak? Shouldn't the management team the first to go if they can't improve our profits or future outlook? I am with... — read more 

Badly managed company

I worked in I.T. for many years and finally got out on my terms thanks to remote working picking up. It is a badly managed company and one should only work there as a very last resort. The stress level is very high due to the constant layoffs. If... — read more

Stressful environment

The majority of my department was let go recently. Prior to that, when Highmark took over HealthNow, a lot of my team used up their 3 weeks of PTO within the first few months and five people quit without notice. These were hard working, loyal people... — read more

Are layoffs still happening?

I know the big round is long over, but I keep hearing of a few people here and there being let go all the time. Are we now in the new stage of constant but small cuts? If we are, that's much scarier to me than regular layoff rounds. At least those... — read more

Threat of layoffs, job anxiety, member attitudes

Highmark just laid off another 200 plus people today. Me included. People across all departments. People who were set to retire this year. They don't care. Good thing the CEO made 9 million last year tho.

2022 Highmark Layoffs

They are here, coming fast and furious. No one is safe, even laid off a mother the same day she lost her daughter. 2022 is going to be bad, 2023 heads will literally roll. Can leadership survive? Can AHN make it out or will they sink? Better... — read more
