EWO RIF Conversations have started
Just had my call with my manager. There are more conversations happening today. 12 years with stellar performance and they really just bend you over. I guess the severance is supposed to the lube. Fu-k this place.
When will it start? Has it yet?
Has it started yet?
10/29 layoffs
Tomorrow is a 100% guarantee that there is a RIF. It is absolutely occurring in OT and in H&C, it is also the largest headcount RIF of the year. There will be no more in calendar year 26. I am in OI leadership and it was a specific topic in our... — read more
Optum Housecalls
Any have county assignments posted for January? Texas NPs? Oklahoma?
Best way to minimize productivity
Leave the date of the layoff vague. Now people are barely able to work from anxiety, and we're not even sure it'll happen tomorrow. Self-sabotage at its best.
Will 10/29 be the day?!
Starting a new post. Has anyone heard anything from a reputable source about layoffs tomorrow? It’s extremely difficult to work today. My anxiety is through the roof. Managers claim they don’t know anything.
Clear out your Thrusday calendar
There is no point keeping scheduled meetings for Thrusday, you might as well push them to next week. Either you or the people in your meetings will be cut and once they get the RIF notice all works stops until they exit in 2 weeks.
Manager wants to review my self-evaluation
My manager emailed me to say that they want to review my self-evaluation draft before I submit it in the system. DO NOT SUBMIT IT UNTIL I REVIEW IT A, I was told. What is this cluster fu-kery? In over 10 years here I've never had a manager ask me to... — read more
WellMed Cuts
So on 9/16 we had an organizational meeting stating we would need to start working with redeployment teams. That never happened. We were never contacted by those teams. Many of us have called HR and they have told us we are not under redeployment or... — read more

Open Enrollment Late
Anyone getting worried about why open enrollment is later than normal this year? Haven’t seen anything on Sparq. Worried about higher costs and further reduction of benefits for US based employees. Would appreciate if anyone can post if they’ve heard... — read more
UHCT town hall
Our leader looks like a ghost. Arms crossed rocking back and forth, and reading off a page while speaking. If these people arent technical, arent they supposed to at least have social and people skills, and business acumen? This is like watching a... — read more

Will it be this week??
Thursday is the 29th.. Will it be this week for Home and Community?
Each reorg leaves things worse
Every reorganization seems to take another piece out of the workplace culture. By now, I expect things to get worse whenever a new restructure is announced.
Is today the day in Optum?
Loads of rumors but the Oct and Nov ones aren't as solid or confirmed as others in the past. In previous years the Oct RIF was among the largest of the year along with the Feb RIF. If there is one and you're impacted I wish you you the very best. ... — read more

Optum Tech revolving door of leaders
The previous CIO left about 2 months ago. We had All Hands to meet her replacement. We got sent an All About Me questionnaire, supposedly so they could personalize swag and we’d get to know each other better. About a month later (last Fri) the new... — read more
Still unable to work
I work remotely, and ever since GitHub Actions was taken down, I have been experiencing a critical network connectivity issue that has severely impacted my ability to work. Although I can connect to the VPN and access support.uhc.com, virtually all... — read more
AIDLC is trash
Its literally just a vendor solution that they wrapped around Copilot. Its a joke. The fact that our leaders think that this Pixel cr-p will lead us to the promised land where Codex and Claude Code couldnt is wild. Shows how incompetent they are... — read more
Offshore resources on restricted accounts…
There are a lot of accounts that have offshore restrictions yet I see so many instances where offshore resources have access to the data or help support it. There is a global client restrictions list which lists which accounts have restrictions and... — read more
Money, money, money but not for the oeasants
Q3 2026 United Health Group reported $4.11 B profit (net income). Up 75% from Q3 2025. But we’ll still be told at the next all employee show that we really didn’t do that well just so we don’t get our hopes up for a decent raise nor bonus.
Which team is the most incompetent
ESRO IT Mac Support Zscaler I would say ALL OF THE ABOVE, whatever teams they represent.
RTO - CA
I'm under JZ then 2 H1B vp levels. Then Sr Director and Sr Mgmt offshore level. Sr Mgmt level and above for our team just does reporting on projects that they ask us workers to do for them to hand it to the next level. I was put on a RTO "bad" report... — read more
