Can someone please tell me if we didn't receive VSP offer, what does it mean? Wasn't targets met? Didn't 1200 employees already leave Centene.

I didn't receive 08/12 meeting invite. What does that mean for the SC team?

Every year the "top" contributors get to go (with a plus one) to the Diamond Club event. Waste of $$$$. Always, a 5 star place. Top entertainment. Stop the Waste. They have to have 1 person from each group nominated.

Does anyone know what the process is or have any information from their PL or HR on if folks will be allowed to move up their VSP date? A potential future employer is waiting on a date from me but my VSP date is later than expected. Appreciate any help or guidance here, thank you!

There is a new explanation on the staggered dates and why it was done. Doesn’t say anything about appealing the date. Also a question about last day work and separation date.

Got my previously unscheduled 1:1 meeting invite for Monday today. This is going to be a big one.
I couldn’t care less about Dell so I’ll certainly share exactly what I’m told. I’m in the US.

What is going on in Warsaw. I see lots of people sending goodbye notices today. Which departments were hit and how bad is it?

Centene projects substantial severance costs for the current year, potentially reaching $415 million. This figure includes anticipated spending in the latter half of the year for enterprise optimization efforts. The company has already incurred $50 million in expenses related to a voluntary separation program. Centene currently employs 59,800 individuals. The insurer reported strong net income and revenue for the second quarter.

HR isn't here for us. They're here to protect the company from us.

So many folks at Nike don't complain, don't cause trouble, just do their work consistently and on time, and they get rewarded by being buried in even more work. Management sees your quiet competence as capacity for more. I speak from experience. Since I started complaining and saying no to more work, my life has improved significantly.

How many got impacted today? What is severance? Feeling really stressed out.

My manager finally allowed me to talk to HR about a salary increase seeing as I had taken on a lot more responsibility and staff under me.
HR has told me I can have a 7% salary bump but my bonus will be cut by 5%
I’ve not had an increase in 2 years but I’m in two minds. The monthly increase is ok, not good but the bonus cut is terrible. But the way the company was a going will we even get another bonus with the debt they are going to have to pay off.

It pretty much feels they are telling me they either accept it or stay on where I am. FYI I’m not on contract

Has anyone else been thru this process lately?
I’m confused.

I'm glad I could clear that up for everybody.

Laid off last year found a new job but didn’t update LinkedIn for about 90 days. Updated it this week and today get a message ( solicitation) congratulations on your new job ( listing company by name) and asking me to talk to WF about rolling over my 401k. The ba--s!! You treat people like cr-p, have rolling lay offs for years , no empathy for the impact on people and then turn around and solicit me. Actually WTF. I realize it is not the fault of the individual advisor but who came up with this idea. Let’s solicit people who gave decades to this company and we treated them like trash. Yes, maybe they will keep their 401k rollover with us so we can continue to profit off them. The company no longer has a moral center. Anyone else have this happen? Also if you didn’t want me around anymore - why are you looking at my LinkedIn. Creepy

People leaders were just notified at 12:15 on 7/30/26 via email of employees that were approved for VSP.

Recent Town Hall someone asked about more layoffs and the answer was clear - Enbridge isn’t doing any more mass layoffs. So they told us what we want to hear but they are just playing games. They are doing micro layoffs instead and just keeping quiet about it.

Was just laid off today. Cloud Engineering. I know of at least 6 others

All new hires WW have to be approved Alvind and he wants a genuine business case. He doesn't even trust his direct report to sloths to make a good hire.

CTX is the worst. I don’t know anyone, other than a handful of a$$ kissers that don’t do any real work, that are happy. One of you leaders with some b@lls needs to step up and make some positive changes before all of the good people are gone or too burnt out to care.

I went from being a confident, successful professional to having to seek therapy and medication after working at US Bank. Worst experience of my life. The company is chock full of good people who have turned mean for survival. Thank god I’m no longer there, but the ptsd is real and is taking much longer than I thought it would to heal from. I hate how hard I was on myself when I worked there. The company is culture is messed up. Everyone there needs to be kinder to eachother.

When the strategy is "do more with less," somehow it's always the people doing the work who end up doing less... because they no longer have a job.
Another round of collections and IT displacements. The folks who kept systems running, helped customers, solved problems, and cleaned up the messes are thanked with a meeting and a severance packet.
Nothing says "valuing people" quite like calling layoffs a "business transformation."
Wishing everyone impacted the best. Companies can replace positions on an org chart, but they don't replace the experience, dedication, and relationships those employees built.

Layoff detector fired off today

Elevance Health Layoff DC 85 employees Jul 27, 2026

Take a look at product. Bodies are being moved around like chess pieces for protection while honest hard working people are getting cut. Eventually y'all will be checkmate.

how many dei employees did aap originally hire? and how many do we still have calling the shots?

I think some people are missing the point of other posts regarding if one should be worried about their job or not. YES alot of people know we weren’t eligible for the VSP including myself, we get that, we know…….but that doesn’t mean we aren’t worried about our jobs either! Those that have a separation date know at some point their job ends, but what about the ones that dont have that? I see lots of people saying what their department head or PL tell them, seems like you all have way more information than those who weren’t eligible for VSP. If we’re NOT eligible for the vsp does that mean we’re safe? With a lot of us having less than 2 years what are the odds we’d get cut? Ive heard nothing regarding the call center……nearly everyone on ny team has been here over 2 years……so if they all get cut by accepting the VSP or Involuntary layoffs…..what would that mean for me or my other coworkers?

So i just called the VSP line and inquired about my designated separation date of March 19,2027, whether that’s going to change. The lady I spoke to says that’s unlikely to change.
Thoughts?

Does anyone know how hard it is to get a transfer to another job location? I want to go from Westlake to Jersey City. Thanks!

I’m seriously at my breaking point with this company. While i know it’s my choice to stay and deal with it, it still doesn’t take away that the way we are treated here is so gross. The administration, the higher-ups, whatever you want to call them, are once again not filling in roles for people who leave the company. I’m so tired of the corporate culture. They work us to death, they consolidate positions adding more workload and stress without compensating us fairly or not even at all and in return, we get an email that basically says “we hear your gripes so in return, here are 5 more refrigerators for your pantries. Are they effin for real? The people are doing all the heavy lifting, get crapped on while Tony and people 3-4 tiers below him are making a nice salary and bonus. It’s absolutely ridiculous and disgusting. A company that used to pride themselves on work and life balance has back pedaled on that significantly.

Where do you start if you want to explore VR opportunities? HR?

Noticed some quiet promos in streaming on the P+ side. Anyone else see these?

It’s a spending spree now that the company got more help! Teams traveling the globe and enjoying entertainment and fancy dinners.
Yet-we are in debt and are taking on more debt.
Not to mention the 6 figure work from the coach and pool side positions.

John should be realizing with all this cash, employees are looking around going what about us? He and the executives will be making cash for themselves but we don’t get anything extra at all for all these record breaking results.

Him and those over paid HR goofs better start thinking of ways to give employees a bit more or the motivation to keep preforming won’t be there.

Wells Fargo newest tactic of getting rid of bodies is to demote people. HR demoted a significant amount of people with the rationale that the work is not important (anymore). The teams were very involved with the regulatory oversight and consent orders but apparently that's not important anymore. So beware guys. It is a bit wild considering their just taking peoples titles and officer titles away, demoting some people from salary to hourly. Even directors weren't safe from the wrath.

There were layoffs in CDM again. Anyone know how many? If you were impacted, it will likely list the roles and number in your separation document.

Unable to sleep knowing there'll most likely be more cuts. I wish they were able to wrap this up in a single day.

• Wellstar stated that exactly 761 employees from the corporate and shared services functions, and certain administrative roles, will be laid off.
• This round of layoffs will not affect any frontline medical workers.
• The company did not specify exactly when the layoffs would go into effect.

I'm so tired of the "we're family" speech when they need me to work late or take on extra projects. The moment I ask for a fair raise, it's "business decisions" and "budget constraints." If we're family, treat us like it. If it's business, stop pretending otherwise.

The team is great, but the culture is completely broken. To everyone still there, I know it's a rough job market, but there are better places out there if you are patient and take your time to find them.

I've seen great employees kept in place because their managers didn't want to lose them. They make their department looks good, manager looks good, but they end up stuck because their manager sabotages their advancement for their own gain. If you've been stuck in the same position for a while and don't know why, this might be it.

If it was offered? I need this job, but I'm thinking there are those who wouldn't mind leaving with a package. Wouldn't it be better giving them that opportunity and saving some jobs for folks who really want to stay instead of starting indiscriminate cuts right away?
