Okay, because there is really no such thing as a crystal ball that can tell you your future with Humana, I suggest you go over to the Centene Layoff site and read the many posts of from many frantic employees. This probably will be Humana in the next 6 months.

Dell will be worth exactly 3 percent of today’s market value and 82 percent of its employees will be gone. Rough rough rough times ahead for Dell. Get your popcorn

yes some people are being moved to the okc tower, but where will Devon be in 5 years? Constant re-orgs and layoffs have left Oklahoma hollowed out as a destination for oil and gas workers

I met with a high level and well connected employee recently to try get some answers about my ultimate potential. This person works with D&S for my job family in succession planning. I was very honest about how I don’t see a future with ExxonMobil. The person tried hard to basically convince me that the pension is worth sticking it out for since I have put in two decades with the company already and am in my forties. The person then went on to describe how in the not too distant future there won’t be any employees at EMHC left other than those who are still needed to mentor the BTC. The person made statements like you are old enough and close enough to retirement that you can make it. My takeaway was the future for old people is to train India to take all the jobs. The future for young people is to be fired. I suggest young people wise up and leave before you are fired and that old people decide if this is the future you want to be a part of. I do not.

The majority of our jobs won't exist anymore in just a few years.

Be honest. Do you believe we're capable of returning to our former glory, or are we well past that point by now?

Now we know what is in the future for North America's workers.

What we should expect regarding AI? Any insights?

I don't have the same level of hatred for this place that a lot of people do, but I'm also not blind. The constant layoffs aren't a solution, they're just a way to delay the inevitable. You can only cut so many people before there's nobody left. I don't see how this ends well.

I've been thinking about whether staying here long-term is even realistic anymore. Everywhere I look, people are just going through the motions until they find a way out. New people, old people, it doesn't really matter. The consensus seems to be that Schwab is in decline and nobody should be pinning their future on it. Maybe that's for the best.

The street loves the “mass layoffs, benefit cuts, zero merit increases, have AI do everything” story. I wonder what the reaction will be a year or two from now?

How would you compare us to the rest of competition?

I am interested in opinions of folks that worked for other companies.

Also, I'd love to see what people think about our position a few years from now

Is this a bad dream? Verizon seems to be stuck in an awful doom loop of layoffs with absolutely no off ramp to a better future. I never thought morale could keep sinking but here we go again

Do you see a future of company? Would we still exist in 5 years?

It just appears more and more concerning to me... Many great talents but the management team is really running it to the ground.

I’ve got a feeling that as AI invoked layoffs pick up, we will see a rise in white collar unions. Anyone here open to starting a trend here?

ExxonMobil is aggressively expanding BTC by leasing more office space for technology, engineering, digital, and strategic business functions. Everything is slowly moving to India.

You hear me
This may look vague right now, but if we don’t act, the company could fully shift major operations there and even redomicile in India within the next 25 years.
This is what the organization is doing to us. This is our future!!!!

Any info. out there on TIS modernization projects? Some are under review or shortly going on hold, what does that mean for the future direction of TIS?

Does anyone have any idea what will happen to our GSC PH colleagues over the next few months?

Media content on the networks is the future and there are significant synergies to be gained. See you on the commute!

What’s your final answer? Are you staying opted in? Why or why not? Hmmmmm? There is just soooo much to look forward to! It’s gonna be Hhhuuuuuuggggeeeeee!! Centene is gonna be the biggest and bestest health plan EVER! No one has ever seen anything like it!

With Tom Kirkland gone and no immediate replacement what are peoples thoughts on Wescam, aeromet, and forcex being pieced out into other sectors and TSS being dissolved?

You are being let go so that they can loop back around with the same job openings at much much lower pay with the reasoning that AI does the bulk of the decision making.
The 6 figure tech job will very soon be a thing of the past. This plan is unfolding right before your eyes now. Don’t let the lie you tell yourself of “maybe not me” manifest into a false sense of security. Your days a literally numbered on the calendar. Good luck everyone.

AI is fundamentally changing how work gets done, according to HR leaders. HiBob CEO Ronni Zehavi states AI allows companies to scale output without proportional hiring. He emphasizes that successful organizations will prioritize workforce design and agility over headcount. This involves organizing around skills and capabilities, pushing decision-making closer to the work. The future workforce will be dynamic, focusing on human-machine partnership and developing human potential.

SAS is having an event for retirees, weeks after the company-wide celebration, to which we were not invited. Much of the success of SAS is due to the great work of retirees. If we come to said event, we have to pay for our own lunch! Seriously!?! We get to listen to stuff about the latest stuff that ki-led the goose that laid the golden egg, and after all we did, they won't even spring for lunch for us?!? In contrast, there is a mid-October event, independent of SAS, for retirees. https://www.facebook.com/groups/2885607674835420/posts/27527959706840208 I think I will attend the latter. Hope to see you there. I'm sure SAS only cares about the present and the unfortunately bleak future, but shouldn't they have some respect for those that contributed to their early success?

From CNBC.com:
Similarly, IBM replaced its HR functions with AI that handled around 94% of routine requests but was unable to meet the other 6%, which included ethical dilemmas. IBM then announced plans to triple its U.S. entry-level hiring across all business units in 2026.

Not something that already happened, but anything on what's coming?

Has anyone else been future fired? At least one of us will be shown the door in October.

Micron Technology implemented significant layoffs in 2023. These reductions affected approximately 7,200 global positions. The company's workforce has since rebounded. Micron reported 53,000 employees by August 2025. Micron expects to support 90,000 jobs through future investments.

I dont care about Wall Street analyst and media hype.
I am curious about what folks in the trenches think.

Job losses due to implementation of AI is coming soon .

My prediction is once Kyle Malady retires, you will see consolidation back to VZ 1.0 and then you will see mass reductions in overlaps across two orgs back to one.

I could be wrong but that’s where I believe this is headed / kind reason Sampath out and absorbed without replacement.

Let’s see how this all plays out …

Kyndryl is exactly like the salad on McDonald's menu, short lived and nobody will even notice when it's gone.

It appears Citi is only cost cutting and scaling back operations. They can’t grow and are not innovative, so the only option is to keep cutting and reduce the bottom line.

Does anyone have any visibility or knowledge about the future of project managers in this company? We once had a PMP ( Project Management Practice ).. Moved in and out of Center of Excellence.

Are we part of the target group for firing? Any knowledge of where the future of PMs is headed in the company? Perhaps folks in the US who are closer to organizational decisions can answer.

This is the future,

One day I think we've got what it takes to climb back up. We've still got plenty of smart people and good products. But then I look at how far we've fallen and I wonder if we'll ever get that back. So I'm asking all of you. Do you think we'll find our way up again, or are those days behind us for good?

The Wall Street Journal evaluates how 500 leading US corps stack up in 6 areas: AI readiness, innovation, talent readiness, financial fitness, resilience and agility.

AT&T ranks #375 overall with an Overall Score of 44.2, making it a clear laggard in the table. The headline surprise is that AT&T has a strong AI Rank of #33, close to Verizon’s #26 and well above many industrial and financial firms. Innovation is also not terrible at #181, which suggests the table does not see AT&T as technologically irrelevant.

The issue is that AT&T fails to convert AI readiness into broad future-readiness. It ranks #390 in Talent Readiness, #352 in Resilience, and #465 in Agility, which overwhelms the positive AI signal. The Goldman-style read is that AT&T looks like a company with technological investment capacity but legacy operating drag. The data suggests it may understand the AI transition, but the corporate system does not yet look adaptive enough to benefit fully from it.

Has anyone heard of any future layoffs for Benefit Verification or Prior Auth reps?
It seems like Health100 is being made to take over the majority of our work.
