".....Then they cancelled my insurance in a pandemic & requested all their equipment mailed back, which I did in perfect condition. Brain injury after an accident."
usa, usa. that's what americans do.
No severance after 11 years of service. NOTHING. Anyone who is 'holding out' for a "severance" illusion may be in for another sour american reality. Be careful. the us ties in 'health' insurance with a job. Sickening and vile. "enrollment" metric boosts, etc..more capitalistic us greed. No public option, yet we all need to eat and pay the rent in this terrible place.
Its Halloween 365 days of the year in true Bollywood Hollywood style.
They never gave me Severance after 10 years employment. There was no confidentiality agreement of any kind... I got a call saying basically instead of accommodations to allow me to return to work I was being terminated & if I ever got better in the future feel free to reapply. Then they cancelled my insurance in a pandemic & requested all their equipment mailed back, which I did in perfect condition.
Brain injury after an accident.
I found horrific recordings I must have made before my memory was lost in the accident. I couldn’t even listen to them, managers were so belligerent double talking. Threatening to put me on some written up thing for refusing to abandon members when they turned 65 & still had coverage. They, LOL, wanted me to enroll members for metrics boosts & then close them the same day! I have so many screen shots of the teams metrics with them berating me being the same or higher than others. I forgot all about these... crazy hostility! Gaslighting & flipping subjects...
So.... if they’re treating you poorly & you’re holding on for a severance package- don’t because they’ll potentially screw you over in the end & they really haven’t got a shred of integrity.
Tell em to pound sand. It’s unreal what these US companies make the employees do. It’s as if they own us. Wait....they do!
What confidentiality agreement? If you're quitting, that makes no sense.
Unless there's something in it for you, don't sign anything.
lol dont sign sh– if you're quitting.
Just sign it and take your severance. It is mainly about ensuring you don’t directly take and use documents from Optum at a new employer. The severance agreement does not contain a no-compete agreement which would be a bigger issue barring you from future similar employment. So you are free to do similar work in the future.
That should be done when you start and you sometimes sign if you are offered severance and take it. I would never sign if I quit.
