Is it my delulu mind or is it coincidence that in the last week I have gotten a call from the Wellbeing team promoting a free service to talk about emotional wellbeing services. Like a call from am 800 number EVERYDAY. When asked what the... — read more 

I was RIFd 10/18, and that was also my last day of work. I want to share a few things. I've been an employee over 25 years and this is NOT the Anthem I knew and loved. I had a note on my computer at all times for a sudden Thursday morning meeting... — read more 

when One can't control the things One should control, one controls the things you can control; when stock prices tank, no winning contracts, so what does GB do? change the company name and update the hybrid policy to be more constrictive. ... — read more 

Make sure you are in the know that the “hybrid workforce policy” was updated 3 days ago.

I'm a former Anthem employee (I left in 2021- my choice) and now current federal employee. I don't know if this would be interesting to any of you or not, but I do believe the federal employee health benefits plan is a big chunk of Anthem's aka... — read more 

Is anyone else drowning in work? We lost some teammates in the last round of layoffs, but unsurprisingly, the workload didn't budge. It's become too much to handle for the rest of us with everything piling up. I'm worried we'll lose more people as... — read more 

Pray for Gail and leadership to be servant leaders

I work in area where the rubber meets the road so to speak. All that cr-p about health of humanity and those we serve is just that! NEVER is the members health or treatment based on what they need ever mentioned! EVER! It’s get them out of... — read more 

I wouldn’t mind layoffs at all if they were based on performance. But that's never been the case. At least not as long as I've worked here, and I've been here a fair number of years. I've seen the best employees walked out again and again. That's... — read more 

I have been trying to keep up. Are there confirmed dates for RIFs in November?

Gail’s “leadership” navigated Elevance straight into a decline in Medicaid enrollment, missed earnings targets, and a drop in Medicare Advantage star ratings. Her “solution”? Punish the heart of this company with hiring freezes, layoffs, outsourced... — read more 

Anyone else pondering the whole MAHA possibility vs the insurance industry? I’m wondering if some of the “challenges” we are facing are the possibility of big changes coming in Jan if RFK Jr. and his team are in play

Let's see how many positive versus negative words we'll get. (I think I already know the answer to that, though.)

Like the game of sink my battleship except the game has more straight forward communication and a process! You ask a question it takes an army of associates to figure out the question, the person, and or the process to refer too! Gail needs to go... — read more 

CAQH. Multiple teams on call. Anyone?

How much institutional knowledge have we lost in the last few years? The impact is felt in everyday work, and it’s only going to worsen. You can’t simply let go of the majority of your most experienced employees, replace them with mostly recent... — read more 

I left a few weeks ago and luckily kept my emails & sent out emails regarding my OT before I left. I had a feeling they would sc--w up my pay or try to withhold it once I was gone. That is exactly what happened. I was supposed to be paid my last... — read more 

Go somewhere where you are valued. The brain drain is happening right in front of their eyes, and now morale is tanking. Plenty of places to work remotely without a RTO mandate and better pay. Heck, look at even the competitors - I bet they would... — read more 

I heard from a reliable source that there will be no AIP next year. This also impacts anyone let go in the 4th quarter. Has anyone else heard the same update?

For those who know, was there a RIF date in November?

In this economy and hard times in our society, it just chaps my a-s to be made to feel so disposable and worthless after all the hard work I’ve put into this company over my 9 years here. The things I’ve witnessed, experienced, tolerated, it’s... — read more 

Elevance Health is laying off a combined 123 employees across two southern California locations, according to regulatory documents filed this month. The insurer is laying off 64 employees at a Carelon office in Cerritos, and 59 at Anthem Blue... — read more 

So has anyone else noticed employees were not sent the annual employee engagement survey this year? With all the cuts & RIFs it's no surprise. They know morale is at rock bottom. Frankly they don't care.

Our HR is so bad it's almost funny. We've had a lot of RIFs. Presumably the people left were the ones who were center-right on the ratings curve. NOW we will need to re-calibrate all of them lower even though they are absorbing extra work and longer... — read more 

Anthem sued for creating ghost networks. What happened to SPS (Strategic Provider Services) migration that was supposed to be ANOTHER magic button? They spent a huge amount of money (led by A Chennuru) on it and took several years to... — read more 

Greedy leadership will be the inevitable demise of this (& any) company. The sh-t workers get by with anything and everything imaginable, despite the badgering by leadership that we complete the “Do the RIGHT thing” module. Really? Ethics &... — read more 

I don’t hate my job or Elevance as much as others do, but let’s face facts: this mess isn’t getting fixed. The company’s just delaying the inevitable with constant layoffs. While that might keep things afloat for a while, what happens when there’s no... — read more

I’ve been searching for a new job for months, but everything I’m getting offered is significantly below what I’m making right now. I wouldn’t mind a slight pay cut, but the offers I’m seeing are too low to make the jump. Is it just me, or is the job... — read more 

What a sh-t show. Ga doesn’t deserve to win the RFP.

As a Manager it is really frustrating that half your staff is on a QIP and other is not….seems very unfair. I don’t even get a QIP. One of many crazy out of date benefits.

Is that a possibility?

In the midst of all the Riffing that is happening at Anthem, who’s LOB just added Work IQ to their computers this week? Any tips? Got to love the C-suite decision making here.

What is your take on the call? I call bs on MK. This is the same person who said the organization did not plan appropriately for the Medicaid redeterminations. If you aren't afraid what's going to happen with your job in the near future, you should... — read more
