I got a notification from HR and not my manager due to the Allina/Sutter merger my position is being eliminated within the Epic support model. I was told Allina is breaking the optum contract and my position was no longer needed for the rest of support.

Has any other former Allina person received this notice or heard about the contract break?

I left Honeywell a year ago and wanted to check if anyone is aware of the non compete clause and duration within PA/IA. Is it for one or two years? For execs, I know it is two years but not sure about other staff. I don't seem to be able find my offer letter.

Anyone know how long are seasonal positions? When are they expected to end?

Unionized nurses at Brigham and Women's Hospital are voting on a final contract proposal after months of negotiations. This vote occurs as the hospital's parent company, Mass General Brigham, implements layoffs and cost-cutting measures. The nurses previously postponed a strike that could have significantly disrupted patient care. If the offer is rejected, the union may reconsider an indefinite strike. Union leaders have expressed dissatisfaction with the proposal, particularly regarding wage increases.

I’m having a hard time understanding why P66 is being so heavy handed with the contract situation at the Bayway Refinery.
What would it have hurt to keep on negotiating instead of locking out the represented employees?
What are these employees going to be like when they return to work?
Of course, that’s the GoGo/Tractor Man way.

Curious how things are looking in the Polish office these days, especially with all the restructuring.

Back when I was around, a huge portion of "contractors" were basically treated like regular employees. Same management in Outlook, annual performance reviews, same Jira sprints – just on an invoice. I remember management even joking behind closed doors that regular B2B was basically a disguised employment risk, sometimes throwing around weird workarounds.

Is this still the main model there? How common are these B2B setups now in Poland while full-timers are dealing with layoffs? Anyone worried about ZUS or tax stuff catching up?

Citizens Bank has filed a lawsuit against Ameriprise Financial, alleging that the firm recruited a former advisor who subsequently violated his employment contract by misappropriating trade secrets and aggressively soliciting the bank's clients.

Why why why. Shady !!!!

I have multiple people across my teams that if are not renewed or converted will bring us to a screaming halt at Healthspring. They were hired on a contract-to-hire basis and I have only had 1 have it fully converted as promised.

As a manager I am not in the financial meetings but to those that are, does anyone know?

Amazon is reportedly planning to eliminate up to 5,000 contract positions across the United States. This potential reduction is primarily linked to a proposed legislative measure in New York City. The Delivery Protection Act, if enacted, would mandate Amazon to directly employ its contracted delivery personnel. This could also lead to the closure of 15 warehouses in the city. The company has expressed concerns that the legislation will increase delivery costs and times.

This marks the end of a nearly three-decade partnership for the early-childhood education program. The current $15 million agreement expires at the end of 2026 and supports 32 employees.

Anyone familiar with the Contract Sales Division? The guys that used to sell appliances directly to builders and contractors. Just curious because I worked for a guy that delivered the appliances to sites over 30 years ago. I always wondered what ever happened to those salesmen. I'm pretty sure the company I worked for went away several years ago.

A Washington-based Amazon delivery partner has ceased operations after its sole client, Amazon, terminated their contract. This abrupt decision resulted in the immediate layoff of 120 employees.

Affected roles included drivers, dispatchers, helpers, an administrative assistant, and a manager. The closure is expected to be permanent.

Anyone know if contract renewals are happening for Talent Source right now?

Just saying!
All major contracts have been renewed!
Bank of America is going to become Bank of India 🤡

No details.

It's dawned on me that during the hiring process, with its flurry of emails and documents going back-and-forth, I didn't get a signed copy of my contract back from OT. (Obviously, OT isn't foolish enough to add a copy to employee profiles in TC.)

It draws me to wonder how many other people are in the same position--"somehow" the final copy of your contract never made it back to you.

Throwing stuff against the wall & expecting it to stick. The company hires contractors for things nobody wants to do and nobody can do. Where is the logic there? They treat people like C***p too. No respect. TRAIN your own people & GET RID of the idle Middle Managers that know nothing & hire the consultants.

The Ontario Court of Appeal has ruled that a six-month unpaid layoff did not constitute wrongful dismissal. This decision affirms a prior ruling from a lower court. The court found that a temporary layoff clause within an employment contract was valid. This legal precedent impacts how temporary layoffs are viewed in the province. The worker's challenge to the clause was unsuccessful.

Nearly 1,900 Blizzard Entertainment employees have approved a new union contract after two years of negotiations. This agreement includes significant wage increases and improved accommodations for remote work and disabilities. The contract also introduces new protections against potential layoffs, offering extended severance and recall rights.
