Curious how it works if you get laid off while you’re out on PTO. My manager has been very distant for a number of weeks now so I can only assume I’ll be part of the April 30 cut. I took this week off so they don’t lose my PTO but I’m curious would they still call me on Thursday? What if I don’t answer 😅

Does anyone know how it happens?
Do you get notified a day before or does an HR meeting pop up on your calendar in the morning?
My team was already hit
Are the rest of us now safe for the rest of the week?
Anyone have an idea when the falsified data for RTO w/ VDIs will be
Crazy to me that it's been falsely reporting for about 2 weeks now.
Is OptumRx impacted?
Any insight if OptumRx will impacted Thursday?
What is happening
When will the people here be held responsible for all of the bad decisions they make. How can a company of this size act this tjis
Another DSP day tomorrow.
About 400 more people gone. I guess Shart needs another million in his bonus.
Another week, another game of "is it my team's turn this time"
I honestly preferred major layoffs to what we have now.
What’s the severance package ?
Sorry to be insensitive and sorry if you’ve been let go. I think I’m next on the chopping block. I was wondering what does the severance package look like ?
The clock is ticking
Look around at who’s left. It’s hard not to feel like we’re all temporary at this point. Layoffs keep coming, and eventually they will reach everyone they have to pay more than pocket change. Anyone still standing in the US is on borrowed time. It’s less a question of if and more of when.
Employee Survey
No one has any faith in the employee survey. No actions are going to come from it.
All quiet in the UK
Nothing yet. Had ANYONE got an HR meeting tomorrow yet?
I've heard nothing.
PTO auto approval, sign of layoff?
Recently the PTOs are auto approved and not from the manager, anyone noticed this in the past that affected their role?
Optum lost all employee trust
Not some. All of it.
advice copying work files
With potential layoffs next week, any advice on how I can save work files?
Heard IT can provide access if I download my files into a folder and make a note of it.
Will downloading a ton of files right now alert IT security
There's no "safe" anymore
You survive one round, you breathe a sigh of relief and think it's over. Then a few months later, another round happens. And another. Layoffs at Gainwell are like those horror monsters that keep coming back no matter how many times you think you've ki-led them. It's never really over.
Morale is at an all time low
It feels like we've hit rock bottom.
Any actual PEOPLE updates?
Seeing updates about the technology the company will be using, but nothing about when people will receive updates about jobs or locations. Isn’t closing in 2 weeks? The communication on this from leadership is completely lacking.
Just to check
We're certain it's done, right?
Town hall
Are all the questions being blocked? Nothing is coming through.
All Hands 4/22
Hour long meeting full of insults. The idea that working in office will foster conversation and innovation is, as someone else has said, a fat load of kwap. There are SO many reasons for why this isn't going to go well on the 4th, but I don't want to beat a dead horse.
I'm just tired, man.
Earnings
Yikes!
Still at FIS - don't celebrate
If your position is not moved to cognizant, then don't celebrate.
80% Chances are that you be let go by end of August 2026.
The company is deep in red.
AI
Is anyone else being told to train their AI replacement?
I just moved to West Chester
Can they be so heartless to cut us after so many of us uprooted our lives to work here?
Did we capitulate?
Is it now a fact that Sony won and Microsoft will simply lick its wounds and step away from Xbox and gaming in general? Am I being too paranoid, because that's certainly how it feels to me.
It used to be that layoffs came in waves
You'd have a bad quarter, they'd cut a bunch of people, then things would be quiet for a while. That's not how it works anymore. Now the notifications go out almost every week. Someone new gets the call. Someone new clears out their desk. Every single week. It's not a wave anymore, it's a constant drip. How did we let it come to this?
Finished either way
If we don't change quickly, we're finished. If we change in the wrong direction, we're also finished. So either way, we're finished.
Verizon is doomed
Look at what this company is dealing with. Debt that keeps growing. Competition that keeps getting stronger. Lawsuits that never seem to end. Any one of those would be bad, but all three together? I don't see a way out.
This is not over
Only a few hundred from the planned thousands were cut in this round. I don't know when it'll continue, but it'll continue soon enough. Be prepared, folks.
Any info about the future?
Anyone has any hints about what this year will bring? Do they plan second round of layoffs after Q1/Q2 results?

Just paid off and don't see nothing
