Lot of layoffs

Is it 100% certain it's layoff-related?

Does anyone know the number of EEs let go since these layoffs began? Any insight to when it may stop or is this just how it is going to be from now on?

Cigna doesn't deserve your all.

What does it say about a company when a 17-year veteran is secretly hoping for a pink slip? Morale isn’t just low, it’s long buried. At this point, even the die-hards are eyeing the exits.
