Healthcare System Workforce Reductions Continue

Several major healthcare systems have recently announced significant workforce reductions. Dignity Health is laying off 139 employees across two hospitals in California. Adventist Health is also cutting 132 roles as it centralizes certain functions. These actions reflect ongoing financial pressures and strategic realignments within the healthcare industry. Many organizations cite rising costs and the need for operational efficiencies as reasons for these difficult decisions.

Please Indicate if You Are Hispanic or Latino?

I've been throwing out loads of applications after being laid off and one of the questions asked when submitting your resume is if you are hispanic or latino, this seems strange to me considering they then ask for your ethnicity. Now of course its your choice whether to answer or not but for the hispanic or latino question there is only yes or no. This is the case through Workday applications for numerous companies, does anyone know why?


ISP packages

I wasn’t eligible for VSP. If RIF’d, what can I expect? There’s nothing in policy any longer surrounding severance. Will I even get a couple weeks work of pay for just under 2y of service? Anyone have historical knowledge?


IF ANYONE HAS INFO ON THE INVOLUNTARY LAYOFF PLEASE SHARE HERE

I feel like the company is just committing psychological warfare at this point. I called HR this morning, and they said the HR department is not informed at all about involuntary layoffs. This whole process from upper "management" goes beyond unprofessional. Sarah London stated that there would be layoffs in the first week of August. I am now hearing that the date is changing or that most people, including PLs don't even know what is going on. I get having to wait for VSP results, but if the fu--ing ceo says layoffs are a certain date, I would hope they would honor that statement. I'm just so stressed and over all of this bullsh-t.


Hey Centeamers!!!

With all the VSP's approved and separation dates staggered from early September 2026 to end of 2027, we will still possibly have involuntary layoffs occur in mid August 2026 to help the company save some money. Even though we can't be transparent enough to tell you for sure, please keep work hard and diligently to ensure our providers and members are extremely satisfied.


Stuck

Im confused…..if they have what seems to be a lot of people taking the vsp……why would they leave us hanging until mid August?? There’s tons of people who volunteered to take the vsp…..but apparently theres still a layoff threat? Shouldnt the people who took the vsp be the first to go and that be enough since they basically volunteered ?


Two Washington Casinos to Cease Operations

Maverick Gaming will close two of its Washington state casinos by the end of July. This decision impacts over 100 jobs as part of the company's bankruptcy restructuring. The closures are attributed to regulatory changes and a lack of competitive surveillance technology. These shutdowns follow previous layoffs and property closures by Maverick Gaming. The company operates 27 properties across three states.

Layoff Criteria

Got this from someone who was laid off. Decision was made based on:

1) retention cost (those who have not been promoted for a long time in the same position, or those close to retirement age)
2) performance reviews from last 2 years (NS = chopping block)
3) last in first out (new hires)


Novanta Cuts Syracuse Jobs

Novanta Corp. is laying off 49 employees at its Cicero facility. Manufacturing operations will be moved to other locations, including California and contract partners.

P&O Ferries Cuts 800 Jobs Amid Financial Crisis

P&O Ferries has abruptly terminated the employment of 800 crew members, citing significant accumulated losses as the reason for this drastic measure. The company claims these changes are essential for its survival and that immediate action is required. This decision has sent shockwaves through the UK and alerted the European shipping industry, with competitors anticipating potential growth. Affected crew members received their termination notices yesterday morning, with some refusing to disembark. The company plans to replace the laid-off staff with cheaper agency workers.

Nearly 800 employees to be laid off

  • 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.

Layoff Details

I’m hoping someone can be kind enough to tell me what is provided in the layoff package? Salary is for every 10k 2 weeks paid? (Been with USAA 7 years) ? But first, you get a 90 day notice? Benefits? I’d really appreciate it if anyone can give me the breakdown? And is it a lump sum or paid month over month? Thanks


Reporting People Leaders

Has anybody ever reported their PL to ethics or HR? They are giving easier assignments to their friends and I am not meeting metrics. Now have a weekly meeting with them and am sure they are looking to try to fire me to not have to pay severance. Trying to see if anybody has had any experience with escalation.

Farewell

I know it’s easy to get online and say whatever you want when you’re hiding behind anonymity.

Centene used to be a company I was genuinely proud to work for. Somewhere along the way, though, the job stopped feeling like work and started feeling like it was draining the life out of me. Every day took a little more than I had left to give.

Walking away is one of the scariest decisions I’ve ever made. I’ll probably never make this kind of money again, at least not anytime soon, and in today’s job market that’s a hard reality to face. But no paycheck is worth sacrificing your peace, your mental health, or waking up dreading every single day.

The hardest part is knowing healthcare just isn’t where I’m supposed to be anymore. These members deserve someone who still has the emotional capacity and compassion to truly show up for them. I don’t want to become the kind of person who stays just because the money is good while giving people less than they deserve.

So I’m choosing myself, even though I have no idea what comes next. It’s terrifying. It’s uncertain. But for the first time in a long time, I can finally breathe.

To everyone whose VRP was accepted, I sincerely wish you the best. I hope this scary leap turns into the fresh start we’ve all been needing.
