Thread regarding UnitedHealth Group Inc. layoffs

Layoffs?

Optum and UnitedHealthcare employees beware: a huge layoff is coming very, very soon. End of October. The entire enterprise is under a HUGE cost cutting exercise for US EMPLOYEES ONLY!! Their model does not include India nor Philippines, so those places are safe. This upcoming layoff could be one of the largest the company has ever seen. Get your resumes up to date and current. Be looking.

I thought this belonged here as well. The original is here: @10wjZZTV-Hmgm.

How could this happen? What about Severances? This is just horrible... so many years growing this business up. What a slap in the face.

I know of individuals in service, account management, and claims who were also let go. No seeming accounting for quality either, they let some of the top people walk.

We just lost good people in our specialty benefits dept. Appeals supervisor and a claim supervisor. Thing is, our dept is swamped with work. What is leadership doing by condensing these positions and giving people more work?

I know someone who lost their job today. Been with them 22 years. How coward to call hundreds of people and lay them off on a single phone call.

Thanks. Is this for some grade levels like 28, 29 etc or across the board all departments? With Equian acquisition, is the layoff going to be more to some departments like product engineering or payment integrity?
