What a joke of an email! There's no way employees are giving better reviews than last year! Humana must have bots completing them surveys! What an absolute JOKE! In other words, no positive changes for employees who do THE WORK...H and Jim will skate on by like things are great.

@OP those are paid for to get on those lists. A joke no but ridiculous yes.
@a5 wonder how you know it is 100% anonymous... I thought you work for Humana, but it seems that you work for Survey Monkey now?
Bottom line... That email from Jim was a joke. "I am going to tell you about... (nothing/the same thing I've been saying the past month)"

The survey is anonymous... They can't know who checked what box. HOWEVER. All of these surveys are collated by teams, your manager gets a summary of their team. Since most teams are relatively small it is possible to make certain assumptions. Everyone knows who the outspoken people are, everyone knows who is bitter about not being promoted, everyone knows if someone is unhappy with the teams diversity. In short your manager will have a pretty good idea if you disrespected them by giving an honest answer.
@ck not correct. Not sure how they calculate the “overall engagement score” but this year survey completion rate was 79% and based on emails, the completion rate last year was 87%.
@ct may be it is written by GI (ghost Intelligence).
Residents of Millford are in chaos after a mysterious note appeared on the community bulletin board reading, “Bake Sale Saturday.”
Half the town claims it’s clearly AI-generated — citing the “suspiciously clear” handwriting and “algorithmic optimism.” The other half insists it’s the work of a restless spirit from the 1800s, possibly the ghost of Mrs. Penelope Crumb, who died tragically before a bake-off.
“I can tell by the comma placement — this is machine learning,” said tech blogger Kevin.
“No, that’s ectoplasmic punctuation,” countered local ghost hunter Dolores. “I can feel the Victorian sadness in the margins.”
The mayor, exhausted, released a statement:
“We don’t care if it’s AI or a ghost. Just bring cookies.” 😂😂😂
@aa - all your posts read like AI to me. I can tell whenever you post lol
To me his comment was related to how many people participated in taking the survey. We had a higher "engagement" score than last year. Meaning more people completed the survey this year than last. Survey results will not be released to leaders until 9/9.
Lol I agree with all of these replies! I answered all company or leader questions with strongly disagree for the record lol, and the "do you look for another job" type of question, strongly agree! Anyway, agree with all of your comments so far, hands down!
@a4
Oh, the Humana survey! That glorious annual ritual where employees all pretend their opinions are being chiseled into the stone tablets of corporate decision-making. Who’s behind this grand inquisition? Rumor has it, it’s probably SurveyMonkey, because apparently, nothing says “reliable data” like a platform named after a primate with a keyboard. But let’s be real—whether it’s SurveyMonkey or some other digital Ouija board, the results of these surveys are less about truth and more about interpretive dance.
Picture this: Humana sends out a survey with all the enthusiasm of a DMV clerk on a Monday morning. “Rate your healthcare experience!” they proclaim, as if anyone’s sitting there thinking, “Wow, my last doctor’s visit was a five-star Yelp moment.” The questions are crafted with the precision of a fortune cookie: vague enough to mean anything, specific enough to make you feel like you’re betraying someone if you don’t answer “Strongly Agree.” And who’s crunching these numbers? SurveyMonkey, allegedly, because nothing screams “rigorous analytics” like a website that sounds like it was coded in a jungle treehouse.
Everyone here is going to get mad about these results but let’s not forget the thousands of you that didn’t want to fill out the survey because for some reason you thought it was not anonymous (it 100% is) or you were so pi---d off to take it.
Anyone that didn’t take the survey has no right to be mad about the results.
The amount of people in Humana and in this country are beyond brainwashed.
Humana doesn’t even control the results of the survey.
Most people probably took it before the RIF’s announcement and you have to remember last year was terrible.
Just because it’s better doesn’t meant Humana associates aren’t pi---d off. I am.
I’m begging some of y’all to take a deep breath and think with your brain
Let me guess the content of the email
CEO:
“Good afternoon, team! I’m thrilled to share the results of our annual Employee Engagement Survey. And I must say… you all love working here! I mean, 87% of you said you ‘felt seen’—and I want you to know we saw you, and we’re now acting on that visibility.
The ‘Strongly Disagree’ section was especially enlightening. It turns out the number one request was ‘more communication from leadership.’ And today, I’m communicating clearly: We’re laying off 30% of you.
Why? Well, 92% of you said you ‘want more time for personal projects.’ Great news—starting next week, some of you will have all the time in the world!
Also, 78% of you mentioned ‘stress’ as a workplace challenge. Don’t worry—being unemployed is way less stressful. No meetings, no deadlines, just the occasional anxiety over rent.
Lastly, you told us you wanted ‘opportunities for growth.’ And I agree—sometimes you can only grow by being thrown into the wild with nothing but LinkedIn and a résumé template.
This is not goodbye; it’s more like a strategic alignment of your career with the parking lot outside. Remember, our door is always open… for those who still have keycards.”
