Cigna is no longer paying out your unused PTO which is a convenient way to lower the cost of laying off employees. The trade off is that you do not have to pay back PTO that has not been earned. Main takeaway is If you are leaving on your own take... — read more
Clinical Mess
As a member of our clinical organization i can’t believe what I am seeing being done to the organization at the hands of the newish leaders. I didn’t love everything about our team’s prior direction but at least there was honesty and integrity. Now... — read more

Another HORRIBLE policy change
Starting next year, Cigna plans to remove our 56 hour PTO rollover to only allow us to carry over 24 hours. Also not going to pay out any PTO if we’re fired or quit. Thanks for removing another freedom! Can it get any worse??

WorkAssist as an alternative to layoffs
Hilarious how a lot of phone based divisions have implemented Verint’s AI WorkAssist. Advertised as something to assist the employee, it transcribes calls and alerts managers of potential privacy violations so that the calls can be listened to. I’ve... — read more

Rolling layoffs ahead
If the rumors are anything to go by, more cuts are coming—and not just once, but continuously, across the board. For the foreseeable future. All I can say is: put everything you’ve got into finding other options while there are still some left. — read more
More layoffs coming outside of IT
Another round in April - and again (another round) first week of May. These will be outside of IT and may impact all areas in small chunks. In June there may be another but they haven’t confirmed.
We’re just numbers waiting to be cut
It’s brutal out here. Every round of “cost-saving measures” just means more work dumped on whoever’s left. They slash teams but expect the same output, like we’re just supposed to magically do twice as much. At this point, it’s not even about... — read more

Another pointless reshuffle

Is Cigna making itself attractive to buyers?
We might be missing the real reason for all these layoffs. One reasons companies layoff employees and cut costs is to make itself attractive to buyers by reducing costs in general and making itself look more efficient. I just wonder........

Got laid off. Here's what I know
Here's the dirt I know: it's was "by function" meaning someone from high up (won't name but know who) was whispering in the ears of VPs what functions they thought should be cut. A pretty high level didnt have any say in what happened and just... — read more
We lost some of our best talent

Will I lose my scheduled PTO?

Will there be more layoffs this month?
Someone mentioned that the next round could be as soon as next week. It’s starting to feel like a bit too much.
How many were laid off?
I’ve seen guesses anywhere from 200 to 3,000.
What happens to unvested stock?
Like the title says- I got laid off yesterday and I'm having a hard time getting in touch with the department at Cigna that would tell me what happens to my invested LTI (maybe they were laid off too?). Does anyone know for sure?
