I see that I am not the only one here with a manager who tries to make employees believe that there is nothing to worry about and that we can feel safe. How much can we trust a manager like that? I'll keep on sending my resumes.

I’m a manager and asked to falsify yearly evaluations. I notified everyone above me. The only person that cared was the labor board. Yes, I resigned.

I believe they spread out the layoffs in order to avoid state trouble. If you don’t mind worrying every year, whether you’ll have a job, if your boss will lead vs manage, or if you’ll be valued… go work for Optum. If strategy, great leadership, or... — read more

I used to put in as much effort as possible. Now... I don't even try anymore. I've noticed that others have less and less interest in keeping their jobs here as well. Or am I wrong?

They don't want ready change, just the illusion they are trying. This is so true. If they really wanted some changes that would improve this company, I think they would do things very differently than they do now, right? Personally I think that... — read more

When are MAP reviews supposed to occur? If there is another round, I assume it will be before, so they don’t have to pay out???

What are people's experiences with finding a comparable job & salary following a lay-off?

From reliable source : layoffs happened today and will continue to happen. Not sure how far down it will go but still at a higher leadership level. PS. The highest of the Hierarchy knows about this site and is monitoring and trolling.
