Thread regarding Elevance Health (Anthem) layoffs

Which areas of business were impacted during the Nov 5th layoff?

Curious to see how big of a layoff today was or if it was more targeted.

Just saw on LinkedIn someone who worked in HR with EAP issues posted she was downsized. So it looks like they hit HR again.

@14g of course it matters a lot to those affected, but would it adversely impact on the company at large? National has done nothing but lose accounts the past few years and hasn’t won any big accounts to offset.

HR Creative team? Since when does it take any creativity to RIF people, move jobs offshore or hire H1B workers? Actually, maybe it does take creativity to su---r new people into coming to work for He-l-evance, or they might just spend their time posting to this site to make external hires think it isn't as bad as it is...

@p8 - Maybe I’m out of the loop because I’ve been doing the work of at least 4 people,because I had no idea that we even had a “Creative” team or department or whatever. Am I the only one who is surprised and/or confused by this? Can anyone explain what the “creative” people do or did?

@ds Creative DOES NOT belong under HR!! That was a STUPID move and whoever made that decision should be fired! Creative belongs under Marketing. The ones who need removed are the two imbeciles who supposedly lead Creative.

@ds Here's the unfortunate Helevance math: You're not at "capacity" unless you're doing the work of 10-15 people. Then and only then are you at capacity.

Creative team under HR was hit which is crazy because they’re a smaller team and seem to always be at capacity.

Does anyone have an exact (or even approximate) number of people who were RIF’d?

In line with the CHRO’s bloodlust (he isn’t happy unless heads are on the chopping block), HR employees were laid off again this month, just like every month. He does it slowly to make sure his fear based culture continues to be fed. I wasn’t laid off, but several of my co-workers were. They were experienced, well-liked and hardworking. I’m leaving this company as soon as I can find a new job. No one is safe here.
