For those who have posted that there are additional layoffs in October can you please elaborate more. What market your in? Is this across the company? I get it that there are always layoffs happening in this type of company but I thought we would be good for at least a year. I get people like to cause fear as well but is there actual proof of late October layoffs?

@q6 Been out of work for going on 2 years now. Was a thriving engineer, very good at my job, with great reviews at Humana until the Indians got into Director roles and stated giving all the important work only to other Indians. And then started pushing Americans out.
@g4 the 3 to 6 months rule of thumb isn't even enough anymore. The job market is horrendous. I've seen far too many people on LinkedIn telling stories about how theyve applied for thousands of jobs or have been actively looking for over a year. Capitalism is effed up.
@g4 there are no companies I am trying to go to. I have always worked in the hospital with patients care and admin so I’ve never had this type of job before. We rarely ever dealt with layoffs, so that constant uneasy feeling and wondering if I’m going to have a job next week, is new for me.
@g4
True layoffs happen everywhere
FALSE layoffs like Centene do NOT happen everywhere
@OP Please go look at the layoff boards for the company you want to go to. Report back after you do.
Yeah layoffs happen everywhere.
Live within your means and always have 3 to 6 months of salary in savings for worst case scenario. If you don’t have that now, tomorrow is a good day to start.
@c4 I detect your sarcasm, which is justified. It is truly ridiculous how the H-1B Visa program is being abused, saying that there are not any qualified Americans, when their are plenty of American computer science majors that could run circles around their replacements.
We did import 53 people from foreign countries. I guess we cannot find labor here, but we lay off workers including IT.
I guess the story is more complicated - huh

The last rumors that were on here ended up being true. The timeline coincides with previous rumors. I just don’t have the energy to be upset about it at this point. The culture and values are in the toilet.
