Why aren't Optum layoffs making headlines?
It seems like every day, someone on here mentions another Optum layoff, but you hardly ever see anything about it in the news. Has Optum truly gotten that good at keeping it under wraps, or do people just not care anymore? It's weird that we seem to... — read more

Today is supposed to be to be last day of layoffs. If you made it without any urgent meetings today, congrats. If you’re impacted please post
Is there a light at the end of the tunnel?
When will this endless cycle of layoffs stop? Optum can’t continue slashing its workforce without facing some major issues down the line. How much more do they think they can trim before it starts to hurt the operations? And when you think about it... — read more

Where can we go if in IESNP?
We feel trapped in IESNP with no where to go. We can’t go to Landmark, we keep getting people from them as they fall apart. Patient connect is run by the same horrible DCO and VP as IESNP and also shrinking, not a big surprise these leaders are so... — read more

Just had our all-hands meeting with DS. Almost 500 staff on the call. Talked about our many successes but ZERO mention of last week’s RIF notifications and impacts. Is she really that out of touch???? How is she still with Optum?

Another round of layoffs in November?
Has anyone else heard rumors about more layoffs coming in November? My team's already been hit hard in previous rounds, and I'm not sure how we'd even manage if it happens again. It’s getting tough to see how we can keep things running if we lose... — read more
My Layoff Experience 10/17
I wanted to share a theory and get your thoughts on whether it makes sense. I’m a Business Analyst who was recently laid off on 10/17, and I had also been laid off back in March, but that layoff was later rescinded. After that, I was moved to a... — read more
VPs/Directors asking for staff ROI
These VPs approved roles to be hired and are not wanting ROI of their employees. Why did you approve the roles in the first place?
What's going on at Optum?
Layoffs seem to be all that’s happening at Optum lately. It feels like nothing productive is going on anymore, like leadership has just given up on trying to do any actual work. I really wonder how long they think this “new business model” of theirs... — read more
Getting rid of the hardworking legacy CHC employees has always been the plan
Absolutely sick over all these layoffs. Learned that an outstanding employee with exceptional outcomes and client satisfaction was caught up in this yesterday yet people I know do less than nothing, never try to be helpful or play nice with anyone... — read more
RIF support system
Please give this an up arrow if it was helpful. Let's take back this board from the fear mongering! I was recently laid off from Optum 3 weeks ago. it su-ks. I totally get it. I keep checking this board to see if it's even worth it to reapply... — read more
Layoffs update
Will they continue into next week? This has been such a horrid experience so far. So many good and hardworking people lost their jobs. It is apparent to me that there will be more of such rounds, as they are gearing up for many depts to move the... — read more

Layoffs update
They are happening across the board, it seems. Do we have a clue how many people are being affected? What’s happening with Landmark? Some people are reporting that Landmark hasn't been impacted yet, or hearing that it may end up not being impacted at... — read more
What are those who are not affected supposed to do?
I see that a few teams were completely decimated. What are those who are still here supposed to do now? Double or triple their workload to get the work done? That's not realistic, even if that might be the exact thing the management is hoping will... — read more
Landmark
Sooo…when do we find out? I’m on pins and needles, and our leaders are rarely honest or transparent. The work level decreased, so they created busy work for us a while back. It’s slightly comforting to know that we’re not the only ones, but this is... — read more

I guess this question is more for upper management, do the surveys have anything to do with letting people go?
