How often does headquarters in BP do layoffs? Looking to join company but would like to gauge job security there. And out of curiosity, do you really need to be "highly extroverted" per the culture. Thx in advance.

This thread highlights how toxic this company has become - both Optum and UHC. Highly recommend, share this in all social media and let it go viral.. this is much needed to drain the toxic nuclear swap that is UHC!

Monday June 15th shall be surplus announcement for Leg T CWA workers thus VTP will happen with most celebrating joyously as we collect our up to 104 weeks pay per contract laughing our fckng @$$es off! It especially will be fun to forever laugh at the nay-sayers.

The next set of layoffs are scheduled, July 15th, Sept16th, Nov 18th and Jan. 20th. AI is suppposedly going to replace all of the those roles. The rumor is a 25% headcount reduction globally.

I'm trying to stay informed but I haven't seen anything solid.

Say what you want about this place, but for me, it's still one of the best jobs I've had. Pay is fine. Work is interesting. Coworkers are great. That's why I'm scared of getting laid off. I don't want to go.

7/7/2026

If you got the offer, consider yourself lucky. I missed it by just a few years. It's a great offer I'd have jumped at. Oh, well. It is what it is, I guess. I wonder if we'll have involuntary layoffs if not enough people accept and what kind of package will be offered in that case.

Does anyone have insight into the process or timeline of laying off an entire department of individual contributors and moving the positions offshore?

Does Optum ever hire temporary US contractors to replace us first and then eventually move to offshoring?

Debating on giving 2 week notice for a Grade 12 position but concerned they could turn around and fire me. Thoughts?

Does anyone know when they're going to start letting people go? I've heard July but I'm not sure. Could be later.

FY2027 layoffs have officially started

Imagine getting 10-percented, losing your job with no severance package, after working hard for a multi-billion dollar company for decades, just so the executive team can save a little money and look good to their investor overlords. Smh

I am asked to relocate to this year. But I don't have my team there. So, I asked for Dallas and it was unofficially granted. My husband has been laid off due to org restructure just 2 weeks ago and his health has gone down drastically, requiring at least 2 months to recover. I have asked for an extension for next year in current place but did not get granted, while my peers did not receive letters. If I don't relocate, i will lose my job too. Not sure how to navigate this with kids.

Anyone any idea when notifications will go out and who will they come from ?

we all know it’s coming in June per Corkey Anthony. are we getting a courtesy email or will it be google-esque with a simple lockout of your account. would prefer the latter so i won’t have to do cr-p for 2 weeks

Wayfair Layoff for Global Partner Retail Enablement was made today. Unsure how many were impacted, but roles across Cross Journey Operations and Analytics were impacted today. Apparently not considered a "RIF" since it was a smaller headcount.

How many of you wish they were laid off already?

Every time there's a layoff, they let go of the people who've been around the longest and know the most. The ones who can solve problems in five minutes that take new people five days. Then a few months later they realize the work isn't getting done anymore. So they hire two or three people to try to do what that one person used to do. How is that good for business?

Let's blow that one up.. add your layoff Intel there.

So they laid off 150+ U.S. Associate Buyers last June but now have several positions posted on LinkedIn…. Is GenPact not working as well as they had hoped? Are they seeing their error in laying off based on tenure instead of performance? So many questions.
