@176 Nothing. That’s the point. She does absolutely NOTHING.
@mr LMAO and what did Laura do? Compliance employees can complain about people all day and most of them cite some interesting reasons for it but she keeps getting grouped with people just due to a former work place and nobody actually gives a reason…let me guess, your reason is guilty by association?
Lame attempt at deflection, distraction, and villification.
Just because you may not agree with certain stances or views that a particular publication may espouse in general, doesn't mean that their content in any given article is any less relevant or truthful.
- The FACT remains that everything stated in that article is 100% TRUTH.
- If you disagree, or don't believe it, why haven't you posted any counter response which can prove otherwise?
- Answer: Because you can't. Because again, everything written in that article is TRUE.
@bg Would like to see those #s per company as they relate to leadership positions
@mr Okay, got it! Made myself a reminder note to have Laura removed as well. Thank you for the feedback and suggestions!
@m7 If Christa goes, please take Laura also.
@gr That's right. The Christa issue won't go away until she does.
@g9 The Epoch Times would hardly be considered a reliable unbiased source- an international media organization affiliated with the Falun Gong religious movement, known for its conservative viewpoints and strong support for Donald Trump.
@bx Here we go again with Christa.
Perhaps include the long-standing partnership between Centene & Cognizant, including their recent $500m-$1billion deal...

...and how Cognizant's "handling" of Centene members' PII has not only resulted in major data breaches; but Cognizant has systemically been violating USA labor and immigration laws so egregiously for years, that the feds have now suspended PERM filings and H-1B processing for them:
"The Labor Department's inspector general said Tuesday that federal officials have suspended PERM filings for tech company Cognizant and software company Cloudera and halted H-1B processing for both firms.
The logo of U.S. multinational information technology consulting and outsourcing company Cognizant in the Alpine resort of Davos during the World Economic Forum (WEF) annual meeting on Jan. 20, 2026. Inspector General Anthony D'Esposito posted the announcements on X throughout the day on Sept. 8. He credited the moves in part to Acting Labor Secretary Keith Sonderling, as well as to a White House anti-fraud task force.
"Fighting fraud is a TEAM SPORT," D'Esposito wrote. "@Sonderling47 and I are for real. @Cognizant's PERM filings are suspended. @DOLOIG is on the hunt. Threats to American workers will NOT be tolerated. Alongside @WHFraudTF, we're following facts, fraud and finances. Handcuffs await."
Hours later, he added Cloudera.
"One more," he wrote. "@cloudera: PERM filings SUSPENDED."
He followed up on the announcements later in the day.
"Cognizant. Cloudera. H1-B processing suspended. @Sonderling47 and I ain't playin'," he said.
PERM, or Program Electronic Review Management, is the Labor Department process employers use before sponsoring workers for employment-based green cards in the EB-2 and EB-3 categories. The department must determine whether able, willing, qualified, and available U.S. workers exist for the job before approving a PERM application. H-1B visas are temporary visas for specialty occupations. They generally last three years and can be extended to six.
Cognizant and Cloudera did not immediately return a request for comment.
In July, the Labor Department and the inspector general's office opened what officials referred to as a "major investigation" into alleged fraud in the H-1B and PERM systems, including possible human trafficking.
In a statement at the time, the two offices said they had "uncovered widespread schemes in which employers and labor brokers submitted fraudulent applications, exploited foreign workers through coercive wage-kickback arrangements, and undercut American workers by flooding the market with below-wage labor."
D'Esposito told Fox Business on July 8 that "dozens of subpoenas" had been issued by investigators.
"This is another example where fraud is fueling violent crime," he said. "Much of the visa and the human trafficking that we see when it comes to this foreign labor is tied to cartels, is tied to transnational gangs, and this is the work that we should be doing, not only to make America safe again, but to make America more affordable again."
He said the work was "not just people working in factories or actual labor," adding that some cases involve "people working in medical facilities and doctors' offices that are actually putting people in harm's way."
Cloudera was already involved in a separate federal case. The Labor Department announced in May 2026 that it had suspended Cloudera's PERM applications for 180 days after an April lawsuit.
The Justice Department sued Santa Clara, California-based Cloudera, alleging it discriminated against U.S. workers while using PERM to sponsor foreign employees. The complaint said the company directed American applicants to an internal email address that blocked outside messages.
"Employers cannot use the PERM sponsorship process as a backdoor for discriminating against U.S. workers," Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon said at the time. "The Division will not hesitate to sue companies who intentionally deter U.S. workers from applying to American jobs."
She said the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division prioritizes protecting American workers from unlawful discrimination in favor of foreign visa workers.
Sonderling has served as acting labor secretary since April, and President Donald Trump said June 29 that he intended to nominate him permanently. A Senate committee advanced the nomination July 30 on a 12 - 11 party-line vote. D'Esposito's posts treat Sonderling as a partner in the enforcement effort.
The suspensions land amid other related policy initiatives.
The Department of Homeland Security proposed ending the 60-day grace period that now lets some temporary visa holders, including H-1B workers, remain in the country after a job ends. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin wrote that once a person no longer meets the conditions of status, "such status, as well as the authorization to remain in the United States, should definitively cease and the impacted alien should immediately depart the United States (unless otherwise authorized to lawfully remain in the United States)."
H-1B use remains concentrated, with a Pew Research survey showing that India accounts for about 73 percent of H-1B workers by country of birth, while China represents about 12 percent."

HR should review leadership chains however they fail to do their job. I see several have huge issue with the good old boys bro club. Most have zero clue what they are supporting. Zero promos but converting their friends to help keep their ego up. I guess incompetence loves company. While the people doing the work are constantly dumped on. How people look at what people were technically hired to do ( product) but still haven't completed in the 3 years since she has been here. She brought her people from another company and then the boys took over the constant measuring contest is exhausting.
Susan has done the same for Experience org. To good to speak to anyone outside her circle. Brought her crew from her previous company who have zero clue what they are doing but trying to make way for more of their people. Actually having a conversation or an all hands of value would be encouraging. How is that product org going? It’s been 3 years and we have nothing of value still to show. Converting only the friends or tag alongs not the ones who are actually doing the work.
Fingers crossed she moves on soon but not soon enough.
@bk This is rampant in Compliance. Christa has brought in so many well paid, useless senior level employees who do zilch.
@bh Oh I am,and if others are bringing any other corruption to light then major props to them.
@bk I’ve seen so many spouses move up to management positions and really didn’t no $hit about the company. Without any standard hiring structure, I wouldn’t be surprised if spouses become grandbabies, sisters, cousins basically the whole family!
@bg When DEI is removed, companies often say they’re “returning to meritocracy.”
But without transparency, “meritocracy” becomes whatever leadership wants it to be — and that’s how you end up with:
Promotions that don’t match performance
Managers who suddenly appear with no track record
Spouses or relatives getting roles that were never posted
A leadership pipeline that looks more like a family tree than a talent strategy
This isn’t just unfair — it’s strategically dangerous. Nepotism creates blind spots, weak leadership, and decision‑making based on loyalty instead of competence
@OP may as well. There are other things happening that the whistleblowers are bringing to light.
What’s your point? The whole industry has had an almost identical workforce structure for decades, and chances are it won’t change in the foreseeable future.
Female workforce/Male workforce
Centene 77/23
Elevance Health 77/23
Humana 76/24
Cigna Group 69/31
UnitedHealth Group 69/31
@b5 starting 2025 Centene Corp =
76% women
White / Caucasian: ~49%
Black or African American: 24%
Hispanic or Latino: ~17%
Asian: - 6%
Circle back on these statistics in a couple yrs! 👎🏽👍🏻
@b4 Oh look another clueless individual who has no idea what they are talking about.Move along kid,us grown ups are talking.
@OP Corporate America and public institutions use a wide variety of terms to describe a DEI layoff, depending on whether they are trying to soften the news with corporate jargon or rebrand their organizational structure. 💯
@OP cover-up of what? the fact that you don’t understand capitalism? that’s plenty clear from your post.
Who is stopping you...
