Can’t say all of Optum Tech, just my area. I have about 20 people under me and I gave out two 5’s, six 4’s, the rest were 3’s.
I was informed this morning I am “allotted” zero 5’s, one 4, and I need to give out at least three 2’s.
Upper management is really pushing for the 2’s to the sent their way by end of week.
Last year 3’s and lower got NO raise and bonus was about half of the allotted amount.
Read into it what you will.

My area as well. Actually told my leadership to give me the 2. Was told no, if I don't stack rank my lowest a 2, then they will decide who gets it. You could read between the lines that management cannot get a 2 or it looks bad on Sr. leadership. You have to force 10% to get a 2 on your teams.
