Hey leaders - just wanna tell you that it's not cool to lay off right before the holiday season.

@b0 They current cutting executives they're cutting middle managers. Some of us try really hard, and i'm really good at what we do. Some managers take care of their people are transparent and help them to succeed. I do agree with all of the red tape we have to go through. I have another manager in 3 directors. I have to run things through before I do anything. NONE of them are on the same page EVER. Why not try to cut some of the layers above us, and let us go back to getting our work done. There's good and bad in every layer. I get that and I assume they're not gonna cut their buddies. So that's why you're left with what you are left with. They don't want leaders that care about their people and help them to succeed.

@b9 Directly after you have written me a check for 1 million dollars!
Just out of curiosity, when would be a good time?
Not sure what the problem is - they are obviously waiting until after Diwali.
"doing a good job" or "trying hard" at this place? He-l no. Executive compensation is already too high as it is.
Bare minimum at best, until I'm out of here one way or another.
@OP this is what they did a year ago, they just packaged it prettier by letting people who had been around for 5+ yrs or more and 55 and up sign-up to leave vs them picking and choosing who would leave. They wanted the older folks to go - I am sure as less likely to beThey did a survey and now taking what they learned from it, they are prepackaging up and serving it back like it was the employees idea. Lots of companies cut this time of year, it helps align them financially having less headcount. It su-ks on any day but su-ks more that Thanksgiving, Christmas, and other holidays happen at the end of the year.
I agree with the fact that evernorth/Cigna are their own worst enemy with all the red tape everyone has to go through to get anything done. At least this go round they will hopefully start with those who aren’t doing a good job or aren’t trying and then keep as many of the people who try hard. There are too many “Leadership” roles.
@OP There used to be some level of caring about employees and their families even in corporate America but we lost this along the way many years ago. So much for the American dream.
