Sad news for tomorrow the layoffs will be happening, this will be across the board for optum employees. Managers are receiving termination training today. There is a freeze for on-shore hiring and only off shore. The main goal is to have 80%+... — read more

Something is working, keep whistleblowing! This week UHG Execs have delayed January RIFs until March. This is the layoffs. They are proceeding with "realignments", meaning they will try and move existing US employees to different areas to then place... — read more 

I would take it and never look back. I’m sure there are many of us who would do the same. Even in this economy.

Until this week is over, I don't see that changing. I'm starting to think that being laid off might be the preferable option to this constant torture.

We had a meeting today regarding the ISNP clinical model evolving. Long story short increasing caseloads. Not enough patients to account for the existing staff we have. So seems to me like layoffs are coming. Anyone have insight?

Any news on that front? If it’s true, good luck to everyone.

All, i put my neck on the chopping block for you. I am in a position to know that absolutely UHG is conspiring against US jobs, using the useless and fraudulent Optum Global brand to sneak around. The only reasons many people were not layed off... — read more

There was an emergency memo pushed out today to high level leaders to stop all Town Halls, Announcements and Communications....aka layoff notices. To only communicate daily business critical items for operations. Very unusual. It is urgent we call... — read more

The tool officially opened. 1.5% raises in US and around 7-8% in India. Lowest I have ever seen in US. RRP is roughly half what it was last year. Makes me sick looking at these numbers compared to the hard work everyone has done this year. If you... — read more 

Actually, the sooner I’m laid off, the better. I want another job, preferably not in health. Industry is operating on undistilled greed, nothing else. We always get the short end of the stick with such an arrangement. Both us, workers, and the... — read more 

14 billion dollars but they didn’t make enough money? Does Witty need to get swindled out of 22 million each quarter this year? This company is shameful.

Work in the back end just working with providers to get documents or send Forms. Look over and work in coordinate. Worries about layoffs. Any word? For Navi turned Optum employees?

Layoffs for HBMC have been postposed to the 23rd. Definitely TX, not sure where else. @av+1jhqcaa3a Is this confirmed? Any news about others?

no one has posted about receiving a meeting invite yet so is it safe to say the RIFS aren’t happening today?

It was recently found out that CHC employees are not getting the RRP. CHC employees also didn’t get it last year. It’s annoying hearing them try to put on a facade that we are welcomed and part of the team, but it is clear we are not valued. The... — read more 

Anyone have any insight as to whether there will be a RIF in this market tomorrow?

This is absolutely a s*** post and hold no weight but why in earth would they change the time you’re allowed to clock in go from 5 minutes to 3? I’m so sorry were my extra two minutes a day really digging into your profit margins??????

So it’s projected when they release the numbers UHC as a whole is projected to have made about 6 BILLION In profit. Yet the US based employees are at a constant threat of getting laid off. It’s time for the complaining anonymously on websites to stop... — read more

Is the entire Home Health utilization management department being cut out under Home & Community?

https://www.warntracker.com/?company=optum I'm pretty sure the one filed 09/2024 is for 01/2025 (not 01/2024.) if you're in the NJ or NY area, be on the lookout! these notices are filed and Optum WILL be laying people off.

Was disheartening, but not surprising, when they outlined strategy to buy new companies for solutions instead of building internally solutions to physician problems. They also bragged about having tons of dry powder to buy lots of new companies, as... — read more
