#layoff

Hi just received my surplus call this morning

When will invites for July layoff happen ?

Last payday 7/1. Goodluck to everyone..

I am torn between accepting VSP or not accepting. My thought is if I don’t accept I will be sc--wed eventually- if not with this round with upcoming rounds. At least with this I won’t be leaving with nothing. But then I don’t want to start over again. I am getting old. Then on the other hand if I am not one of the ones that will be laid off, the work load will be horrible. It is already bad enough and stressful as it is. The outlook of Obamacare is not looking real great from what I can tell so the likelihood of this being ongoing is high in my opinion. I just wish I knew what to do. And having to wait until July 15 to “find out your fate” basically does not help. Am I the only one that thinks this way?

I just had my 6 month anniversary on Monday so obviously I am not eligible for the VSP. I am thinking there is a good chance I will be laid off by September 1st? Do you think that is how it will go?

eBay plans to lay off 639 U.S. employees in 2026. WARN notices revealed these workforce reductions. During the same period, eBay filed for 429 H-1B visa hires. This coincides with strong business performance reported by the company. The situation reignites debate over the H-1B visa program's use.

My boss made every single day miserable. I'd take the income hit over dealing with his leadership any day.

I keep hearing about this bloodbath..any idea what/where/when ?

Curious if anyone has been successful in getting a new position after retraining?

I can't get interviews for roles that match my experience, so I've been applying for entry level jobs just to get some money coming in, since severance is melting away. Each one of them said I'm overqualified and would leave too fast. So what am I supposed to do?

Will there be layoffs in RCS ?

For those promised a severance package towards the end of 2027, are you considering leaving/retiring before the end of this year? Just to escape Polaris, workplace toxicity and overall dysfunction the company is sinking into further each day ?
Despite the promised payout, does your sanity seem like too high a price to pay in order to receive the severance/settlement ?
(Also, what if they keep moving the end date later than year end 2027??)

How long after the VSP July 2nd deadline will layoffs start?

Hearing about layoffs and people being notified in at least 2 groups. What is the extent?

I wonder who else will follow their lead

https://www.cnbc.com/2026/06/15/centene-to-offer-buyouts-to-some-employees.html

My old company used PIPs when it wanted to get rid of people without paying them severance. It's always possible to find something, anything to justify it. The way things have been going here, I'm starting to worry the same thing will happen. Am I wrong?

Any one know specifically what departments are being considered? I was laid off during the UnitedHealthcare layoffs back in September of 2024. Centene hired me after a long 7 month search and now I can’t believe im having to go through this again! i I thought centene was going to be my long term after such a devastating time and now this.

Does anyone know who would be laid off from this restructuring the company is going to go through?

Idk why no one read or listened to the “London Calling” episode…. VSP offers expire 7/1. They’ll base the number of the layoff based on how many people took VSP’s. Everyone who is gonna be laid off will be notified by the beginning of August. Emails with offers are going to most everyone, you’ll get an email at some point today. It’s in waves. If you’re already having a foot out the door, take the offer and ready to move on from Centene, take the offer.

I got my VSP offer this morning and am considering it. I'm trying to figure out what I would get if I don't accept it, and get laid off instead. Does anyone know what the typical severance is during these rounds of layoffs? I'd like to compare it to my VSP offer.

No email yet. Does that mean I’m safe? Are emails being rolled out thru the day? I’m mid age, 4-5 years in, and nobody special so wondering why I’m ineligible if that’s the case.

I just opened my severance package, and I’m honestly a little flabbergasted. After being employed 8 years with the company, my offer is less than $25,000.

What concerns me even more is the wording. It keeps saying “you may” instead of clearly stating what will happen. Nothing about it feels guaranteed, which makes me question whether they’re actually committing to what they’re offering OR trying to to terminate me prior to the Sept 1st date.

Surgical layoffs coming in August after secret post-op analysis is completed of current AI and offshoring initiative. Not mass cuts but not small either. Please make sure you have 6 months of pay (gross) in a savings or money market account for your emergency fund. You have been 'WARN'ed.

I was hired a few weeks before the hiring freeze and haven’t built up a cushion to survive off of yet. I just graduated and moved here for the job. I’ll be royally sc--wed if I get cut whenever they start doing actual layoffs 😬

bla bla bla A I bla bla we think about future and consider significant layoffs globally.

no decisions, no dates, but polish site future is unclear. Did other EU/US get same msg today or only us?

PS. guy who came was from powerflex and spoke to whole R&D site.

Like seriously, go! It’s time to leave.

Are you seeing the rates being subsidized ? The paperwork said cobra will be subsidized to what one paid as active employee for the x weeks of severance. Cobra paperwork has a scandalous $ for indi+ family. Any leads on how you addressed this ? TIA.
