I’ve gone numb. I do need to pay bills, and I do need the job. But they’ve kept us in a constant state of anxiety for so long that I’ve stopped caring. Leadership made sure the work is mind-numbing, the workload overwhelming, and the policies crude... — read more

Three of my co workers laid off yesterday. This is never end until we are all gone

Does anyone know? Cant find it.

Anybody know how it was decided and if they’re done?

Were the people laid off selected by HR or was management involved in selecting individuals.

First, I’m sorry for the folks who were cut and really needed the job. I genuinely hope everyone affected finds something else quickly, ideally a much better job at a decent company. I hope this is over, not because I care about keeping my job here... — read more 

I'm just wondering if this could continue tomorrow. My old company always had layoffs mid-week, and I'm still new enough that I don't know how things work here.

I was let go today, done at the beginning of August.

Am I the only one who's ready to walk out because I can't take the stress of constant layoffs anymore? This is not healthy. This is destroying my mental, and in turn physical, health. I understand that job security is a rare thing these days, but... — read more 

For company that requires us to take ethical and fraud training, they seem to do a lot of shady & illegal actions. Layoffs are no different. I'm sure.

I work for Optum Health and we just got pulled into a 15 minute Team Huddle to tell us there were layoffs this morning company wide and some our team mates were impacted. They wouldn't say who or how many, but they said this cycle of lay offs is... — read more

OT I will be so excited to start my day now.

Lost my job but I have plenty of damning proof of the unsafe data practices rampant at OI. In particular the restricted volume sent out of the US. I have already met with my state senator's staff to expose the truth. We're coming.

fresh lows in premarket after initial May kn--e drop. People paying attention that we're specifically designed to puff up clinical data to goose Medicare reimbursement? Wonder how that works for non-UHC commercial payers billed by OH providers. This... — read more

He couldn't pour water out of a boot with the instructions on the heel. Where do they find these people?

Keep seeing Insight, Tech, and others being mentioned. Is OptumHealth or the care delivery orgs expected to be impacted?

We'll see what happens. Good luck all.

They have always had a pattern of layoffs before earning reports. Is it going to stay same for this earnings report!?

Many, many folks are leaving for greener pastures, so I can't understand why we still need layoffs. Stop backfilling positions, and the headcount will reduce on its own. What am I missing here that this is not being done?

I am anxious to get laid off.

How many people have to be pushed out? How many of us have to suffer through mental and physical deterioration before someone finally says it: this company is poorly managed, and real people are paying the price? It’s not just us, our clients are... — read more
