Does anyone feel the layoff last week got rid of some good people?
I think some teams are seriously down to bare metal. I'm not sure how we can get leaner. I'm one of the few test engineers left in the USA
For tomorrow. Share layoff stories here please. We need to know.
Tomorrow is the next layoff date. I expect it will be focused on non-bonus eligible people and 3/3 will focus on those who
are bonus eligible. They want to see who takes the bonus and run. They are counting on it. Best of luck all.
Layoffs will keep happening until Stock Price goes up
It’s all about the stock price. We’re just cattle. Layoffs will be a yearly recurring thing.

Prepare Yourself!
NO bonuses this year. 2026 will be worse than 2025. Layoffs are going from quarterly to now every other month. This part has not been confirmed, but rumor is that Optum is going away and only UHC will remain.
MISD
Is Midland or Odessa doing similar layoffs?

Mano LinkedIn Post
Mano posted on LinkedIn to announce his exit. What could possibly have been so bad to leave after a year? So many legacy execs have failed miserably and easily remain on the payroll, especially in finance. What happened?

Boss meeting with my direct report
My boss scheduled a 30 minute meeting with my direct report tomorrow at 5. What could it be? Are they being laid off? Am I? My performance review is on next week, , could they just be getting their perspective on me? This is making me so nervous!
Incomplete performance eval
My performance evaluation is incomplete by my manager. Could this mean I’m on the list for 2/19?
Severance, retirement and Medicare
Just had a talk with my adviser about this whole voluntary layoff thing….With me I am so close to 65, I plan to get out of telecomm and pick up a mediocre part time job to cushion the loss of CC funds. Come to find out the upcoming deposit of my severance, any upcoming bonus, banked PTO, etc etc….will be held against me when I start my Medicare…the large deposit will be a IRMAA surcharge on both my Medicare part B and part D premiums. This sliding scale of 5 brackets will no doubly kick my Medicare premiums a few more hundred dollars per month. To those of my coworkers who plan to jump into retirement after the severance comes may take this into consideration. If anyone has any constructive criticism on this matter, I’m all ears.
April layoffs
I've heard there are none, can anyone confirm or deny ?
Any details on 2/19?
It seems apparent there will be a RIF this week on 2/19. Just curious if anyone has any insights in to the business segments and scale. I’ve read Housecalls, Wellmed, and others. Is that mainly optum health?
UHG layoffs 2/19?
The optum board is always more alive than this one or UHCs. What are the thoughts on 2/19? Per the Optum board big layoffs that day? For UHG/UHC?
Running Citi into the ground
They cut and cut and cut, and somehow expect things to keep running smoothly. It doesn't work that way. This company could be great, but leadership is ki-ling it one layoff at a time.
I'm scared of having to interview again
I've been here for 24 years. How do I even start looking for a new job if I'm laid off? I haven't interviewed in more than two decades. I'm scared to even think how much things have changed. I wouldn't know where to start.

Reconciling WARN notice with GM/GD layoff
WARN notice said 54 laid off in Baltimore alone. However, posts on this forum comment on ~59 laid off altogether from the Global Marketing and Distribution Enablement layoffs globally. Does that mean over 90% of cuts were in Baltimore alone?
Why don’t they layoff staff in EMEA and APAC? It seems unfair.
Lets do the math on resent call center cuts
20 US CALL CENTERS
Each had roughly 23 coaches laid off and two Team managers
If you google their pay, and add up all the numbers, T-Toxic-Mobile saved around 26 million dollars a year. Next year they can pay for N-Sync at the super bowl.
SAP Ghost Jobs
Christian and Dominik keep talking about 2% layoffs every year. At the same time, SAP has around 2000 jobs posted on the SAP Careers website. I compared these jobs with the ones in the internal portal. Also applied to quite a few internally and had a few friends apply for some externally. And my hypothesis is this:
The jobs on SAP CAREERS and SAP INTERNAL PORTAL are GHOST JOBS. Either there is already a "preferred candidate" or the job doesn't exist but they still post it.
Why is SAP doing this? Hiring in most areas is almost non-existent right now and a few are leaving due to the bad culture and executive rhetoric.
All company meeting: layoff?
We have the all company meeting this week. Now we start the dreaded "who is getting laid off next week" game.
@aq it’s still posted I hit the archive button here it is again
Dear Mr. President,
I am reaching out to you today to share with you, my story. I work for The Cigna Group as a programmer. Last month Cigna decided to terminate 100's-1000's of our Doctors, Nurses and talented technology employees - Recently Cigna agreed to pay a 600-700M "charge" and has decided to terminate 7,000-15,500 full time employees and offshore their work investing heavily in a new "Hyderabad Innovation Hub" "HIH located in India. They think terminating and eliminating US workers to pay for David Cordani and Cigna's Executive leaderships poor decisions is acceptable.
Recently I have begun learning AI automation and wanted to share my idea how to protect America's work force from Outsourcing and offshoring our jobs to other countries. I think if you were to post draft of an Executive Order or a new article on TS saying my administration is reviewing options to create a new executive order protecting American Patriots work force, stating if Corporations like Cigna plan to move US workers "jobs" to India or other foreign counties they should plan on paying HUGE new tariff\tax or fee on the US healthcare data that originates in the US to be sent overseas. Expecting US Patriots to train the offshore company to "Transform, Manipulate, Re-Work" the data and then send it back to Cigna (or other corps in the US) to then send to their clients like the NFL, Disney and Amazon - they should plan on paying a new ridiculous amount of money to be allowed to do this. It's not just Cigna it's all corporations are doing this and if we do not take actions to stop it - I predict we will lose Half of the US jobs in the next 3-5 years. It's a Major Threat to the US economy and imagine if we lose half the current federal tax income and Social Security will fail. Imagine half of America unemployed with no work homeless living in the streets - a real AI generated "GREAT DEPRESSION" is on the horizon.
I am not saying it should be illegal for corporations to offshore, but I think if they want to use AI Agents Modules and Tools to replace the American work force, they should have to do it located in the US with either HB1 or US talent. If they move this work offshore to other countries to save money, they should have to pay a huge penalty to do it. I think even if you posted a message on TS that we are looking at that your words would stop companies like Cigna in their tracks from moving forward until they learned more from your administration's policies on it. I would like to see you propose an executive order like "The Great American AI Patriots Jobs Protection ACT" laying out how we are not going to let US corporations outsource Americas data to other countries to re-work it and send it back to the corporations to send to their US clients without penalties.
I would like to see you mention directly if David Cordani (CEO) Brian Evanko (CFO) Kari Stevens (HRVP) this this is a new business model they should sell the Cigna HQ in CT and relocate the HQ to India and stay there. David and the ETL team can sell all their mansions in Simsbury CT and go buy palaces in India.
Please really think this through as I think this will go down as a Major Accomplishment in your legacy and would help the Mid-terms in November and for decades to come in the future. Remembered as first President to protect America's work force from AI development. The day you put a stop to this and standing up to protect the US Patriot work force.
I posted my story TS under my ID "IQ120s" this morning, but the TS admins banned my account for "spamming" under the terms of service section "8".
You might be our only hope, the person with the power to stop this potential AI Great Depression on the horizon and being able to avoid it and save America's work force.

I don't know about a layoff of the general employee population, but
I think we'll see leadership changes soon.
Layoff with PIP
I just got a PIP. Given the current state of the company and the layoffs, would you think I will be axed at the end of the improvement period?
Huntington Beach shut down.
Today! Baker has decided to close down the Huntington Beach CWI R&S/Fishing shop.
All shop hands and welder have been laid off and or have an option to relocate up North to Shafter Super center. Admin and field supervisors will work remote. One of the most experience, profitable, hard working and well dedicated team will be no more. A big mistake that will hurt Baker in the long run.
February layoff??
February is almost half over and lots we’re talking about a February layoff but I don’t hear any talk at work about it anymore. This is for usa
Other layoff boards?
What are the other Optum / UHG layoff boards that are legit and have activity or is this the only one?
California Quitters: consider gaming the waiting period penalty
If you are in Cali, you must be given your final pay within 72 hours, even with no notice.
The cynical way to work this in your favor: quit summarily no notice via email to your on a Friday afternoon during business hours before manager’s week-long vacation. You will be owed pay until the final paycheck is cut starting after the following Monday. There will also be penalties doubling the amount owed for each delay day beyond Monday.
Buy yourself a pint on you.
Do this only if you have no respect for the company.
Pennsylvania third nationally for layoffs
Pennsylvania ranks third nationally for layoff notices this year. Approximately 4,000 workers in the state have received notices for 2026. Amazon Fresh is cutting 983 jobs by closing six Philadelphia-area stores. The GIANT supermarket chain also plans to eliminate about 500 jobs. Economists view these notices as a signal, but not a complete economic picture.
