Thread regarding Molina Healthcare Inc. layoffs

Who ultimately is making the decision to let who go on their team?

Is it the Managers, is all SLT involved, HR, the director or VP of the department.

This could be very unfair to the hard working employees that truly are trying to make a difference and helping Molina be the insurance of choice. There are so many Managers out thwre who have given jobs and even Supervisor positions to their buddies, their buddies wives and husbands and their best friends that they do not follow the rules and even make up their own. They work from home go on vacation and pretend to work just to save PTO but exspect different from their own staff. It is complete BS.... They are even going to the extreme of attempting to make other employees they are intimidated by that do better work than them and know a lot more look bad through all this.

It is unexceptable. I just pray someone sees this is happening.

Does anyone know exactly what is being taken into concideration when making these layoff decisions and who it will be?

The managers & directors were asked to submit a list of low performers- other than that they had no input on who stayed and who went. Those decisions were made by SVP's, HR and consultants. They didn't know prior to the day of layoffs who on their staff would be laid off.

Yes, friends pulling in their friends or spouses is very common with this company. These folks will kiss butt to their supervisor/manager so their hire friends or spouses get hired. Then make their own little group to keep kissing butt to these managers/supervisors that fall into a fake "friendship" as these folks speak poorly of them when out for walks or private gatherings. Such a hypocrite workplace with all the favoritism that goes within this company.

I was the original poster of this thread and want to apologize for all the grammar errors. I was making dinner for my kids last night and a friend called and informed me of this site, so I came and checked it out. I did the original post in a hurry all the while having a toddler at my feet telling me he was hangry. lol.. The post was also done on my crappy phone (time for an upgrade)..

I am very passionate about my job and what I do for MHI and was just venting and wanted to ask a question.

None the less, I still wanted to appologize.

Good luck to you all! Ultimately this is for Molina and the Members they/we serve. I am sure they know what their doing.

I hope...

P.s. I am sure without a doubt the negative comments are the ones who got their jobs because of being friends with someone higher up the chain and has no experience. Otherwise why would you want to go out of your way to post on a thread just to let someone know they have grammatical errors. It is that or you're just an unhappy person. Oh wait... or just another one of our micromanagers. :/ god only knows we have enough of them.

I know managers have some feedback. My managers manger asked her who her two best employees were in our area so that kind of says it all.

It's hard to tell if the original poster is asking a question or stating facts. I'm not sure how this post helps to provide details on the layoffs rumored to begin this week. It just seems like venting rather than useful intel. Either way, good luck to everyone out there!

I would take lack of "grammatical skills" over lack of compassion any day.

There are so many grammatical errors in the original post that I cannot take it seriously. Please crack open a high school English book or at least use spellcheck before posting an impulsively useless response regarding the layoffs. Thanks

It appears to be based upon some spreadsheet not on any actual performance.

How are these people with no experience getting hired as supervisors without anyone noticing? It is happening everywhere. There is where they should start, then move onto the Supervisors that have small teams of 3 or less. They are paid way too much to micromanage and make up their own rules within a corporate ran business like this. They wonder why there are complaints of people not doing there job right, because they're being lead by somone that doesnt even know anythimg about this type of industry or even how to do their own job properly. Really is sad.

Hope this weaves all these people out.

From my understanding it is the Corp office who decides....

We are just sitting ducks in a pond waiting for the bullet :(

Ah the beauty of the system....our newly hired Manager hired their friend who has barley 7 months of real experience as a Senior on our team so that they can get better salary...and now they are best buddies...them on one side rest of the team on other side...this manager has marginalized other senior people of the team for the sake of their friend...I am sure this has happened with other teams too!
