Harvard Dean Calls Layoffs "Horrible"

Harvard College Dean David J. Deming described the recent summer layoffs as a "horrible" and difficult process. He stated that the Faculty of Arts and Sciences implemented these cuts to address a significant structural deficit. Despite the challenges, Deming expressed pride in the College staff for largely maintaining student-facing programming. He acknowledged that some programs were impacted, but emphasized that most remained intact. Deming believes the restructuring, which reversed some prior administrative decisions, was a responsible approach.

Science Centre Eliminates Core Unit Amid Staff Cuts

The Ontario Science Centre has laid off 31 employees, according to the union representing them. These job reductions have reportedly eliminated the centre's standalone science unit. The provincial government stated these changes are part of a plan to deliver science learning experiences at new locations. They also indicated that new roles would be created, with some available to affected individuals. The union expressed strong disapproval, questioning the purpose of a science centre without a science unit.

Three and a half years here and the place has just fallen apart

I have been at the same store for over three years now and it is crazy how much things have gone downhill. No communication from anyone, they refuse to bring in help and instead keep cutting people, and they keep dodging the raises they promised us. It feels like they are squeezing every last drop out of the people who stayed without giving anything back in return.

Colleuges can getting laid off without fully understanding key roles,vaule they bring, leaving both customer and internal issues unadressed.

They are rushing to cut headcount costs rather than looking at organizational functions and what people actually do and the value they add to the ecosystem and customers. I want to jump off this sinking ship. Let them deal with the remaining performance obligations and unresolved internal customer issues without enough human headcount.
Yes this is just a rant and may be im wrong.

Why Fix what is wrong with the Plans with Failing CMS Star Ratings when you can simply Throw Them Out!

Humana said on its July 29, 2026 earnings call that 2027 plan exits will affect “approximately 600,000 members” and that “the majority of the plan exits were in plans with three and a half or lower ratings.” CFO Celeste Mellet described the strategy as cutting off “the lower tail of profitability.”

So, instead of trying to fix whatever it was that got dinged and caused Humana to lose Stars ratings from CMS, instead Humana just simply drips those plans where they were failing, so their overall ratings go up and then take their ball in go home. Sounds like a quitter mentality. And besides, who does it hurt? Oh wait, that’s right! It hurts our members!

I wonder if next our school system will allow kids to simply throw out any failing or bad test scores or bad grades, so as to raise up their overall grade.
