I’m seeing a lot of people from EviCore comment about having their roles eliminated. Have any of the other companies under Cigna or even Cigna itself seen layoffs today?

Anyone know what’s happening there?

I just got laid off, and weirdly, I'm fine? I thought I'd be freaking out, but I just feel numb. Maybe I'm in shock, or maybe I was just so done with this place that it's a relief.

Does anybody affected mind sharing? Is it the same as usual or have they made any unexpected changes?

Hi, is anyone impacted in evernorth or accredo ? Particularly Business Analyst title? Is this layoff for fulltime or contractors?

I'm now thoroughly confused. Is today the main layoff day or not?

Why did we allow it to come to this? Why are so many of us so willing to take on work from our laid off teammates to the point where we're constantly overworked but still expected to pick up more - and then we do! How is this our new normal? Nothing... — read more 

Evicore Project Manager axed today.

And those of you laid off are going to be in way better spots and laughing at the decisions being made today by terrible people who are so shortsighted.

My supervisor asked in our team chat if any of us were located within 50 miles of Orlando. Does that mean we’re either going to get let go or asked to go back in office?

Allegiance recently integrated with Cigna’s HR structure this year. Employees were notified the layoffs would not impact them but the company faces continued pressure on expenses this year. And they are working diligently to avoid workforce... — read more 

It was said that all employees received it but I am a contractor and haven’t received anything. It’s probably safe to assume we’re first on the chopping block when it comes to JE but it’s not like we’d be notified of it.

2,000 (3%) RIF by end of February. Driven by AI and automation (no mention of HIH which is laughable). Notifications will go out for the next couple of weeks. It’s safe to say the cuts won’t end there.

So many threads out there.. lets just track here.. I have not received any email so far. -EviCore, Business analytics

TIA!

Credible estimates are that 10-15% of employees (7,000-10,000 people) will be laid off over the next several months, with the process beginning today (1/29). Cigna is in the mess we’re in because we: 1) have no actual long-term strategy, 2) have... — read more 

Is a B5 IC Principal role less safe from JE than a B5 Director role? Wondering if IC roles at that pay are first to go and if being a people leader gives you more stability. Are B5 more safe from JE than other bands? Why is this place like this?

This might avoid layoffs.

Assuming the rumors are true. It’s exhausting being kept in the dark like this. Our livelihoods are at stake.

I can confirm with 100% certainty that my department has layoffs tomorrow. 8 people are being eliminated. Not sure what other areas are doing but people will be impacted 1/29.

I heard from senior management that there will be no layoffs in jan

It's brutally hard to find another job. I've been trying for a while and can attest to that. With most of us constantly on the brink of financial ruin and costs only rising, the fear is real. But this time, I'm not anxious about losing my job. I'm... — read more 

Heh?

Companies are requires to give 60 days notice if they’re going to lay off 50+ people. The only way to get around this is to lay off in smaller numbers or spread layoffs across different locations. Since the Cigna is doing mass layoffs, it seems... — read more 

Is it an email notice sent the day of 1/29? Is it a scheduled meeting? If so, how far in advance do your receive the meeting invite and what is the subject title? Who is on the call? HR? Your manager? How have folks been notified in the past?

Heard from a Band 5+ that Sales and Implementation U3000 is going to get hit this week. Any truth to this?

You're not powerless. You can certainly fight back. The whole point of the layoffs are to keep the already struggling Cigna stock value up. The goal of this is to please investors and because the CEO, David Cordani, is payed mostly in stocks (no... — read more 

Just wondering if I'm the only one who started therapy recently because of this job. Almost all of my stress is from work. I was even thinking about medication because of it.

For anyone who has a large balance of Standout points (Point Perks program) you may want to use them now, just in case you get whacked over the next few weeks.

Any talk of VRP in future? It would be nice to plan ahead.

Looking through my team tonight, it appears that we are nearly fully funded. Merit is 2.5-3.0% and bonuses at 100%. Stock seemed a bit lower, but not too crazy.

If (or should I say "when" ) job eliminations happen in February after they review VRP numbers, will those eliminated still receive their 2025 bonus payout?
