The only way I'm leaving is with a package. I can wait you out evil company.

Why don’t you just leave this site? Stop commenting on every post. We will not stop sharing. Maybe you need to see a therapist. Maybe you clearly also need a friend because you seem real lonely. Anyways bye boomer.

This company is circling the drain. Cutting by 1% the match. Cutting costs everywhere. You just lost whatever raise your were getting. Actually worse with the health insurance rises.

Hold on and wait for the severance package. It’s coming anyway.

Hadn't thought much about RTO in last few weeks. I didn't get hit and neither did most who I work with directly. We're all pretty spread out, so not near one of the offices where RTO has happened so far. But sat through a client call this morning... — read more 

Sandeep called somebody out by name and talked about him having foot surgery during the all-hands. Isn’t that PHI?

I'm on my 4th manager in about 12 months. Two of them were laid off just in 2025. I'm taking odds to see if I'll be let go or my manager before the year is done. No matter how hard I work they pile up the work and expect more. It is a system designed... — read more 

Does anyone actually know what the life expectancy is for Provider Network/Client Management/Care Transitions roles? Mergers, no direction and messy mix of job roles and responsibilities makes it feel pretty clear at least one, if not all... — read more 

Now that feels like a foggy memory. It was never perfect, and I never expected major career growth. Advancement was already limited when I joined. But things were better organized, more efficient, less harsh, and at least somewhat logical. Doing a... — read more 

New to Optum this year. No idea what to expect for a bonus. Target is 15%. Any leaders willing to share their thoughts on what I should expect so I’m not disappointed?

We are told we can apply for internal roles, but then every posting disappears or gets filled before anyone even interviews. Before, you had a chance to move either laterally or upwards within the company, but now that seems to have completely... — read more 

Nothing like going into the week before Christmas and being laid off! What a CR-P company! Looks like it is the Corporate support teams but who knows what areas will all be hit! Has this always been a thing for this company? If so, why do people stay... — read more 

Thanks to ESRO, all Optum tech teams have to adopt a CloudFlare firewall as the entry point to their applications. As such, this company has now become a single point of failure for all of Optum. If they are down, not only is our website down, but... — read more 

Please share details on what is happening with this leadership meeting, does anyone know?

I heard from my manager that we are getting tracked on time in office now? Is that true?

I got let go last month and it still feels unreal. All the mistakes are made at the top, but it’s us who always get hit. Meanwhile, senior management keeps doing their thing and takes zero responsibility. Hard work counts for nothing until they need... — read more 

my first day for Optum will be on the New year, but I can't find anything online about other people's experience lol. It's a fully remote job taking calls as a biomedical support engineer for cath labs. Wonder if anyone here is currently/ used to do... — read more 

Any riffs or reorgs happening within ECS?

All this hype and push around AI has been going on for over a year now. What all do we have to show for it besides people posting that they did the AI dojo on LinkedIn, and some sloppy chat bot POC's that read internal documentation? All this talk... — read more 

If you were reorged (moved to another department without applying / not your choice) and it’s not working out. Can you apply to another position within the company if it’s been less than a year? I know generally you should wait a year to apply but... — read more 

Does anyone else have an onsite meeting for Thursday the 4th? Not sure if this is restructuring or what.

I’ve heard so many different versions of what’s coming and when that I can barely keep track anymore. I know we’re in trouble. It would just be nice to know what’s ahead so we can at least try to prepare.

I want to quit so badly and I even have got interviews elsewhere but I’m held back by repaying my tuition. I have one more year for the two years so maybe I’ll just hang on til then. I hate this place so much.

Anyone out there know how bad the layoffs will be on 12/18? Which locations?

Were all the CA Optum Coders let go in the last round of layoffs? The manager and director in CA as well?

We had a patient call the office and stated that she did not understand why she’s being taken off the supportive care program. She switched from a different insurance to a United healthcare advantage plan just for the coverage and whoever she spoke... — read more

Do you get health insurance benefits after they lay you off?

During open enrollment, the company stated that STD at 60% pay was provided at no cost to employee. With Minnesota Paid Leave, employees are now required to pay 0.44% for STD. This doesn’t seem accurate. The company should be paying the full 0.88%... — read more

Its more than likely not your fault, its a cr-ppy tactic of using the bell curve and even if you have 15 members on a team all of which are good performers, management is forced by leadership to pick a handful to give 2's to. Then you are placed on a... — read more 

Whenever something goes wrong, there's a mad dash to point the finger at another team. No one in management ever just owns a mistake. It's exhausting. On top of that, we all know we're being paid well below market rate, and the chance of getting... — read more
