I'm so tired of all of this

No luck again

It's ironic that I've been hoping to be laid off for a year and I'm still here, layoff after layoff. I'd tell my manager but that would alert him to me wanting to leave and I'm sure they'd just wait me out. The only reason why I'm staying is because... — read more

September 2024 Optum layoff

Highland Optum Urgent care

It’s bad enough trying to see the correct Doctor and now Urgent Care! It’s the only place I go for an alternative visit! This is sad! Poor employees who are dedicated to their patients! Why did you purchase from Beaver if you can’t manage the... — read more

What is the severance package those of you all affected? Is it possible to negotiate? Those who are in a position to seek a second opinion from an employment attorney, please share what you learned for the rest of the group.

Sorry for those affected today

Anyone still standing be prepared it is not the end just the beginning. Layoffs are coming every three months while markets are closing down. They will not get the contracts they need to keep the remainder of staff on and know it. Get your resume out... — read more

Get out while it’s still your decision

That company is a HORRIBLE place to work. You’ll never know how bad it is until you actually leave. The compliments you get from management, they’re not real. It’s just to gaslight you so you don’t see what’s really going on. Get out while you can... — read more
