Everyone is very nervous and with a good reason. On the other hand, Humana is not interested in the fact that for some people a lot depends on this job and what it would mean for us to get a little more information.
Perhaps someone here has more insights what could be the target groups?
If Humana doesn't fight to retain employees who have been with the company for 15 years..... why would they care about me?
wonder if tech workers are safe
No one is safe. Every division, department and team will be impacted in some capacity.
Makes sense, we have heard whispering of the alignment and some managers who are moving into different roles in different areas
No one really knows anything for certain, which is why all of this is so overwhelming and feels so uneasy. This is really all that I do know OP — The 700+ layoff is the true number that I’ve heard rumbling around. I wish they would stop downplaying it by calling it a “realignment”. It will be focused enterprise-wide, and that every single department will be impacted in some capacity. Wether that means you’ll report to someone new, have colleagues RIF’d, or be included in a department merger, somehow and someway, your department will be impacted. I’m also hearing that market mergers and Directors who will be layed off have already been established, and communication emails are already being sent. (Which is why I’m so frustrated by the ambiguity. If things are already being finalized, be honest about that in the town halls and give people time to prepare, especially if you already know their department will be completely eliminated.) I have been told that we will begin to find out about Associates Directors and below by mid October. The next communication email surrounded by layoffs is expected to hit on Nov 1.
All I know is that decisions are still being made across the enterprise. Wish I knew more. Wish I could help.
