Caremark laid off over 300 people today. Customer Service Representatives and Supervisors.
One week before the thanksgiving holiday, lot of fat will be removed in the manager and above levels.
@19j Caremark Customer Care is using the vendors more and more (outsourcing to a temp agency). Certain areas have not hired any Reps in years. Not only are they gladly letting attrition happen, but they are sending away Reps to work in other areas of the business. We have now had 3 managers leave Customer Care to go manage the vendor agents. This is very worrisome.
@s4 I'm not sure what line of business you're referring to but at Caremark in the customer care department, we just had ANOTHER manager leave to go manage the vendors. We are all thinking that they are going to eliminate the Caremark agents eventually and just outsource to the vendors.
Keep sharing info if you hear any news
@jr I doubt they are tracking keystrokes for everyone.
@xm not shocked they ruined the company. But Aetna is getting what they pay for. A bunch of h1bs selling oils in the markets while pretending to work for us. It’s a slap in the face.
@jr I’m a full time WAH…idgaf if they do. I barely leave my laptop while I see others on yellow all day making more money than me.
@rj lol this is hysterical my manager was so condescending to me one day over excel macros. He went to college in India for it. He flexes his excel skills.
I really wish they would just open it up to volunteers. Some people want to be laid off, and some don't. It's better for everyone's morale if they know someone left because they volunteered for it, even the manager can feel good about it, and you can save the job of someone who really needs it.
My director has a calendar meeting blocks named "Guidance Plan" set for the next few weeks. She is picking the names to let go in November.
I bet 60 % of the middle management in DDAT is legacy Aetna business that had got moved during consolidation due to budgets. Most of them still think excel macros are technology.
@jd because they got caught not working….they need to do it more
@jy you’re so right. There is a VP for every group of 20 people then 25 directors under them. They can layoff middle management and a good layer of top and save the company a ton of money and give us bottom feeders COL salaries
Really Cutting Income streams.
Don't Manage.
More Problems
Miore Games.
I'm sure there's others.

@kh David F's group?
Layoffs in compliance and Internal Auditing are coming.
Engineers,over hired from covid, how do directirs decide who to keep
How do they decide who is at the bottom and purge?
How about the layer upon layer of middle management positions that cvs has? Do they really need that many “middle managers”? Or the zillion vice presidents? Does every single department need to be run by a VP? For that matter does cvs need to be so top heavy with useless executives with six-figure salaries? Or the many layers of field leadership? Does cvs really need to have district leaders, regional directors, AP/LP, DVP, field colleague trainers, and so forth?
Instead of laying off the little guy who does all the work, lay-off the executive who just sits in an office all day on zoom calls crabbing about metrics. And give more resources to the stores that desperately need it, instead of cutting to the bone, and expecting more and more with less and less. It’s unsustainable long term how CVS is running things these days. It feels like it’s only a matter of time before the bottom starts to fall out.
What is the scale of this layoff?
Well, bless their hearts. They’re finally clearing out the porch-sitters who aren't pulling their weight around here. Management is riding herd on everyone now, watching them closer than a hawk over a hen house.
If you think you're gonna pull the wool over their eyes with that little automated mouse-jiggler you ordered off Amazon, you’ve got another thing coming, partner. They’re tracking every keystroke, and you are fixin' to be up creek without a paddle. Consider yourself warned!
DDAT let go a number of contractors this week
Anyone know what happened in HR Analytics? Long time names gone, and others are now in DDAT, and a new VP?
100s of remote enginners no work for 3 years, out shopping in malls, netflix, kids activities, phones what more?
I heard that DDAT will be having a reduction 100-200ish in the coming months
Of course there are. DDAT. Healthcare sector.
Too much fat...get healthy and lose weight....you live longer
Or sooner…
If it's under a certain amount you won't hear.
