I work in Sales and there are so many whispers that we are going to get hit hard. Does anyone else feel like they are walking on eggshells every day? We have lost a few AEs already.
Bonus payout in March - What is last day you need to be employed.
Hello- I'm lucky enough to have found myself another opportunity and trying to determine what is the last date I need to be employed to get my bonus.
Confirmed FTE's on 1/29
Weird timing of the month. It appears that this layoff largely depends on VRP acceptance. They want to start the year by offloading a huge burden. I've also heard that this is going to be a quarterly event for 2026. Has anybody seen any WARN report... — read more
What’s the bonus funded at?
Any news on bonus funding?
VRP and 2025 Bonus
So, we need to confirm our participation in the VRP before 2025 bonus amounts are decided. Seems to me that a manager would want to minimize bonus amounts for soon-to-retire employees and bolster those who will remain on. Does anyone have any... — read more
Feb JEs
Any idea if the Feb JEs will involve low performers OR specific functions (e.g product mgt, QE, project mgt…)?
Declining VRP... Only to be let go soon after... Any stats?
After talking with colleagues current and past, someone had asked does anyone know of statistics of people who declined the last VRP, only to be let go soon thereafter? As a band 4 for some time, seeing this all play out last year into this year... — read more
Finding out pay was low at Cigna
Has anyone else landed a new role and been shocked by how much more it paid compared to Cigna? I moved into a similar position and my salary jumped by around $12k without added responsibility. It changed how I look at what I was earning before... — read more

Lets Talk About Verint
If using this to track our every move why aren’t all bands (3 and 4 specifically) required to use it if not directly tied to production? Seems to me if they are looking to cut people this would be where to start - if your Verient consistently shows... — read more
VRP vs Layoff Severance?
So, if you are offered VRP and decline it, and then get laid off anyway, is the only difference COBRA coverage? Do you still get 2 weeks per year of service? Are there any other differences or perqs to VRP? TIA!
What is this all about?

Severance
So as a 6 year employee, I'd receive 12 weeks? Just making sure I keep all my ducks in a row for layoffs.

No FTE opportunities, management is.. aloof
15 year death spiral
I never seen it so bad after 15 years with the company. The pressure on our team to perform without tools and resources with no backfills in critical areas. Now voluntary retirement will have tenured people walking out the door and then we will... — read more
Hiring freeze
Why aren't we backfilling any positions? I'm talking about desperately needed people for us to be able to function normally. Is there a hiring freeze I don't know about?
WFH Positions Being Eliminated?
Anyone have details on WFH positions being eliminated via a RTO policy coming down from on high?
I’m so tired of not knowing what comes next
I barely manage to drag myself to the office every day, already exhausted by the fact that everyone else is in the same situation. We are all equal parts demoralized and worried about our jobs. I just wish this were already over so we could at least... — read more
Office Renovation
If Cigna is in such financial straits, why are they leasing more office space and spending millions upon millions of dollars renovating offices that nobody wants to be in? Make it make sense, please!
Any idea when layoffs might start?
The latest rumor was sometime in January, and that they could be massive. Has anyone heard any updates?
Timing
I was told that any movement is targeted to be finalized by end of Q1. Does anyone have dates or any other info?
Workdays | Job|Additional Data
Wonder if anyone else noticed the VRP related dates there?

Insights Survey
Did I miss it? They didn't mention it during the Town Hall at all. Hmm...
How’s your department doing right now? Here’s what I see in “Marketing.”
The marketing function has become a factory for titles, acronyms, and unaccountable “strategy” that fails the only test that matters: measurable impact on claims, utilization, and outcomes. Too much work is optimized for decks, meetings, and vanity... — read more
Why does Cigna pay like a small company?
Or am I the only unlucky one to be severely underpaid?
It’s irrational in the current economy, but I want out
I’m beyond burnt out. I literally can’t stand coming to work anymore. Three years here have felt like ten at other companies in terms of exhaustion, energy drain, toxicity, and the headspin from constant gaslighting. I just can’t do it anymore. I’d... — read more

So what’s the deal with VRP?
Some rumors say there won’t be any at all, others say it’ll be offered across multiple orgs before layoffs hit. Can anyone actually confirm which is true?
Whats in the VRP?
What’s in the VRP? I’m 55 so do I get access to my 401k without penalty? What about stock? 2 weeks for every year of service? Are they gonna sweeten the deal?

CIGNA Layoffs 2026
Do you predict that there will be CIGNA layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?
VRP company-wide would be great
If leadership is planning massive layoffs, which they are, this would be a good way to start. I’d take it without a second thought, and I imagine plenty of others would too.
