important

Dan promised Wall Street ai-cs tech stack by November. That means more layoffs are coming to reach the $5b .. I expect more leadership departures to be announced soon since last week’s cuts don’t add up to the $500m Verizon wrote off in the sec filing for severances and real estate. Brace for impact.


We've lost too much knowledge

We can't have more layoffs. We've already let too many experienced people go and replaced them with new grads. The impact is obvious to anyone with eyes and it's only getting worse. More layoffs can truly harm the company and the bottom line in the long run.


News 12 Restructures, Cuts Local Coverage

News 12 has implemented significant layoffs, impacting local newsrooms across the New York metropolitan area. These cuts have led to the elimination of dozens of jobs and a reduction in hyperlocal reporting. Standalone operations in several boroughs and Connecticut are being dismantled, replaced by a single regional broadcast with brief local segments. While Long Island and New Jersey will maintain separate broadcasts due to stronger ratings, the overall impact on local journalism is substantial. Remaining staff express concerns about safety and the future of neighborhood-specific coverage.

Organizations and business partners gutted

I stand here on ashes and ember. Many colleagues impacted, particularly those I rely on to support and drive execution. I suppose someone will figure out how I can push any projects through without them? I will quietly and simply sit on my hands until then.

Federal Agency Cuts Impact Illinois Conservationists

The U.S. Forest Service has terminated over 3,000 employees nationwide. Twelve of these former employees are from the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie in Illinois. These layoffs are causing disorientation and a feeling of diminished purpose among the affected workers. The reductions are expected to negatively impact conservation efforts in the state. Midewin's programs will also need to adapt to the loss of staff.

NC Budget Slashes Legal Aid Funding

North Carolina's new state budget significantly cuts and restricts funding for Legal Aid services. Lawmakers are diverting money historically allocated to Legal Aid towards public defender offices. This follows a previous funding freeze that already caused layoffs and rural office closures for Legal Aid. The new budget also imposes restrictions on the types of cases Legal Aid can handle. These changes will negatively impact vulnerable residents needing legal assistance.

Packages?

So sorry for those who have been impacted this round so far. Any insights on the package they are offering this round of lay offs? I know previous layoffs were two weeks of severance for each year of service. Is it still the same?


PDM?

Anyone have any suspicions as to how Provider Data Management teams across the company will be affected? My team (Wellcare Medicare of Connecticut) was already cut significantly once in 2024 because we exited the Vermont market then, and this year we were combined with Maine under one manager.
Without us and what we do, providers can't get enrolled, credentialed and paid, and members don't know who they can even go to see, so I'd say we serve a very critical function. But I know that means little to nothing at the end of the day in all of this. My manager has already said that if she has any say in the cuts at all that me and one other person are definitely not going, but obviously no guarantees that she will have any authority there. 🤷🏻‍♂️


BHDD Reduces Administrative Staff by 47

New Medicaid work requirements start Jan 1

This is what Centene is bracing for. We are already down in membership and this will definitely TANK the Medicaid LOB starting in January. Will the states be ready for this? What is the company doing to prepare for this change besides laying people off?
