Thread regarding Humana Inc. layoffs

Kiddo?!?! Just one more degrading jab!!! Add it to the list. Don’t even talk about “paying bills” like they are hurting in anyway?! With their imported Italian marble tile and private jets!!?!! Call it what it is..GREED!

@d8 Seeing as how so many upvotes to the post to follow forum rules, I wanted to expound on something.

Societies are dependent on rules. Once rules are abused or ignored, then eventually society breaks down and eventually ceases to no longer be a society.

So, no matter how much I have lost respect for Humana’s leadership, I will not break the rules of society, including the subset rules set out by various entities under that society that made them clear.

But why do I despise Humana’s leadership? Because I feel that they no longer follow the rules of society. Take for example the H-1B Visa process, which was designed to only be used temporarily in very rare instances when absolutely no American citizen could be found in all of America that could perform the duties of the role. So, every time Humana leaders displaces an American citizen so they can hire more non-citizens under the H-1B Visa program, they are flaunting the breaking of society rules and even laws, using loopholes for purposes of greed.

And there are many other ways Humana leaders have broken society rules with their various ways of discriminatory hiring and firing practices, bullying treatment, and lack adherence to human dignity.

But just because Human breaks societal rules does not mean I have to lower myself to their standards.

With all that said, Humana would do well to realize that what I first said about societies breaking down. If you continue to flaunt breaking society rules in the faces of those being exploited, eventually they may turn on you. We have recently seen an example of this in France. I sincerely hope that does not occur here in America.

@aa Can only use initials, not allowed to use full names.

Not sure if you are aware but it is against forum rules to give full names unless they are on a very high role such as an executive. If you use full names, the forum admins will delete the posts and possibly the entire thread.

So, using initials is not weak, it os following forum rule protocol.

Your post shows a lot of contempt of employees. You need leadership training.

Once a leader uses be grateful to have a job. Thats when you know they are sh---y at leading others. Be grateful you have me as an employee! Lol

@a2 Becoming profitable by constantly laying off employees is a tool of poor management. Better management of work and expenses is needed.

@OP And anybody who says be grateful you have a job should definitely NOT be a manager. Be grateful you have me as an employee. Be grateful I chose to work here and make you look good. Be grateful I work hard and come in everyday.

@OP Didn't you just drink the corporate kool-aid my friend. Having to lay people off to make bank is called poor management. Call it what it is. The longer employees accept being used and then tossed away like kleenex, the longer that will be acceptable. Yes, corporations have bills to pay but how they pay them is important. You can't use people like a vampire. People are what make your business. If at your core you don't believe that, it will show. Yes in real life, nobody owes you a job but then I don't owe you loyalty either. You get my 9 to 5 effort 100% but nothing more. Not destroying my health and my work/life balance for you or anything where I give my all and you consider me an expendable asset. Just so we are all clear.

Just putting out initials is so weak

AMEN OP!! No one wants to take responsibility for anything anymore. These so called hard workers show up in pajamas with blankets. Maybe if they respected themselves more then they wouldn't hate their job so much.

The OP is the one with the “free ride,” as he pushes out good people. Pushing out Military veterans who were saving up for a while to put a down payment on on a house do they aging Mom could move in with him because she now has to use a walker and needs assistance. He had $30k saved up and was making headway.

But then you allowed your boss, a Director from another country, to starve me of work and then you and him “bird dogged” me every step asking for progress reports on cloud work, knowing full well that Ii was asking even begging for cloud work assignments. But your chosen “cloud engineer” or whatever his title was, also from another country, would not give me any cloud work.

So, basically you, the associate director KF, and the Director DB, and the cloud engineer SR had totally set me up for failure.

So, yeah, I am very bitter about it. Had I not made the move into ServiceFund department, I would still be employed with Humana today, could have bought that house so my Mom could move in with me so I could care for her during her last days.
