Hi Cigna employee asking what are HCSC employees thoughts on their health benefits, dental, vision, premium cost, deductible , etc...

I’m a Cigna Medicare employee transitioning over to HCSC. I’m curious if you guys are on the same pay calendar. October 4th is our next pay date. Are you guys on that cadence? Bi-weekly or is it bi-monthly? Thanks!

Day one was brainwashing stuff. Literally an HCSC cult. Johnny was condescending and s-xist. And he's Dana's BFF. Dana, you gotta listen to employees for meaningful content. You don't know it all.

Talk about tap dancing around a question. When asked about the hiring freeze - answer was no - followed with a 10 min…. But….. statement. The spin was almost masterful. Almost.

They're finding ways to make working here as unappealing as possible so we'd walk away on our own instead of them having to pay us severance and/or unemployment.

SMH at what was given as a reason for adjusting our PTO. Maurice, we took away PTO because we are being responsive.

According to the CEO, you get 2 less days of PTO because they are balancing things out - such as letting you work 2-days remote.

Can someone confirm if Sid leaving on his own?

Anyone else see the post on Viva Engage about the Tx town hall yesterday? And leadership acknowledging Blue Pulse results significantly dropped and they know why? Just thought it was really funny.

What is the base pay for senior systems analyst? I recently accepted a offer to join with less than 125$k per year. Insurance also not good and less PTO. Should I ask more?

Yet another pointless HR town hall today. No questions answered. Cryptic messaging. Meaningless. The cut in our PTO is supposed to benefit us how? Execs have UNLIMITED PTO. This is disgusting.

Cigna Medicare currently uses QNXT and is working on migrating to a system we’re calling DMOM which uses Facets. What system is HCSC currently using for member enrollment, billing, and claims?

Does the company monitor remote workers? For example, monitors the amount of idle time or clicks?

Good luck attracting younger talent. Exit interview was pointless. Do your managers come in 3 days a week? Are you teaching your director who makes triple your salary how to PRINT? Thank God I didn't waste my time. Bologna.

never even heard of this company. It's not blue Cross and blue shield. It's a white organization trying to pander to minorities with African American "leaders". I can't afford my meds and they don't care. I can't afford parking and they don't care... — read more

So PTO accrual, PSWD, etc are updated on HR. A new hire (hire date of 7/1-11/30) is given the full 7 PSWD/WDD for 2024. So given that veteran EEs have likely all used their 7 days, a new hire can start 2025 in a much better position than seasoned... — read more
