Does anyone know how large the E&I layoff was? We have lost 3 people in our department, not sure about others or if this is only one of many waves. Morel is low with many who weren’t laid off receiving 0 raise and 0 bonus, a slap on the face and an... — read more 

I sure don't. It's just a paycheck, with no hope that raises would even keep up with inflation. Between offshoring, AI hype, zero growth paths, and the constant threat of being cut for no reason other than bottom line, why even try? Working hard... — read more

My mgr got axed... and now I report to an offshore manager who doesn’t really understand what I do. doesn’t even try to... most of the time it feels like she just tells other people to do the things my old manager used to handle.Since all that... — read more 

One thing that Optum lacks is Change Management processes. They will reorganize teams and expect people to get on board or even understand the new function. And then wonder why morale and performance is low. And with the RIFS happening good people... — read more

What happened to the Wellmed IT leadership, did they all go back to Optum? I was laid off from Wellmed two months ago and I am happy to be moving on. The WM leadership face planted that business in to the ground!

I got a sparq notification that I was assigned a BSL. I checked all my other team in sparq profiles/org chart and no one else has this person listed. could this be bad news?

Does anyone know the cost for Cobra insurance for myself just in case a lay-off comes,then I know what to expect.

In 2025, Optum India is significantly expanding its footprint and innovation capabilities, highlighted by a new 500,000-square-foot office in Chennai and the launch of its first innovation center in Gurugram.

Since Home and community townhall for 03/05 was cancelled and rescheduled to 03/26, what area do we think will be getting laid off this coming Thursday?

Does anyone know how many people have been cut total? How many more to go before this "restructuring" is done? Are we done or not? I just want a date when I can stop being terrified every morning.

I know that when someone gets laid off, they have a term date, typically two weeks after the date of layoff. So how does regular salary and severance payment works? Are these two weeks paid as regular salary or part of severance, and how long might... — read more

Why was the town hall for 3/5 cancelled

No offense to the people who are still here, many of them are just amazing, but in aggregate, top talent has already left Optum years ago

I might be out of a job right now, but being let go from that toxic dump was honestly a gift. The culture was so fake and draining. I'd rather struggle financially than ever go back to that atmosphere.
