Why wouldn't we leverage AI to replace offshore?

Since many of us can utilize AI to do our jobs in a third of the time in IT- why wouldn't we use agentic AI with high performing onshore resources and eliminate offshore? Just feels like this would be the best way to leverage this tool.

New hr thing? “Fieldglass”

Under sparq - pay time and personal info - “fieldglass” is on the list now. Never seen this in three years I’ve worked here. What is this?

I’m finally out

Optum gave me no reason to stay and plenty of signs that it was time to go. Not looking back.

Is this legal?

How can they RIF people in the same job they are hiring new people from India? How dare Hemsley say we are an American company serving Americans on July 4th. He needs to open his eyes and look around!! I feel there is a geograhical prejudice here!... — read more

Ship back laptop

Can someone please post the contact information for getting their equipment out of our homes? A bunch of us were affected with the layoff months ago and still havent received boxes to get their sh!t out of our homes.

I don’t even feel relieved

I’ve gone numb. I do need to pay bills, and I do need the job. But they’ve kept us in a constant state of anxiety for so long that I’ve stopped caring. Leadership made sure the work is mind-numbing, the workload overwhelming, and the policies crude... — read more

First, I’m sorry for the folks who were cut and really needed the job. I genuinely hope everyone affected finds something else quickly, ideally a much better job at a decent company. I hope this is over, not because I care about keeping my job here... — read more 

Does Optum ever lay off on Fridays?

I'm just wondering if this could continue tomorrow. My old company always had layoffs mid-week, and I'm still new enough that I don't know how things work here.

When will it be enough?

Am I the only one who's ready to walk out because I can't take the stress of constant layoffs anymore? This is not healthy. This is destroying my mental, and in turn physical, health. I understand that job security is a rare thing these days, but... — read more 

Shady layoffs

For company that requires us to take ethical and fraud training, they seem to do a lot of shady & illegal actions. Layoffs are no different. I'm sure.

Layoffs Over for Today?

I work for Optum Health and we just got pulled into a 15 minute Team Huddle to tell us there were layoffs this morning company wide and some our team mates were impacted. They wouldn't say who or how many, but they said this cycle of lay offs is... — read more

I was notified today at OptumInsight

Lost my job but I have plenty of damning proof of the unsafe data practices rampant at OI. In particular the restricted volume sent out of the US. I have already met with my state senator's staff to expose the truth. We're coming.
