Thread regarding Humana Inc. layoffs

It appears that people's experience varies a LOT.

Personally, I like it here. I'm given the latitude to take initiative and I have made quite a difference in the IT team I am in.

Humana=High stress of worrying if you will have a job throughout the year. Story of my life for the last 15 years. That kind of stress is sometimes not part of anyone's well being. and I thought Humana strived for the well being of their associates. ha

Excellent place to get promotions without doing anything!

If you enjoy being a cog in a toxic, woke, narcissistic culture...sure... feel free.
I am free.
Choose wisely..

how do you stay at Humana? got rIFfed

Good place to work only if you thrive on job insecurity! Good place if you live for the thrill of wondering if you still have a job a couple times per year. I always steer everyone clear unless they really don't need their job.

Do you realize MLK was implemented back in the 80's??? Humana is late to the game! And taking from personal holidays. They aren't giving you anything.

@1wfh, Excellent. If you don't mind, this should be highlighted in a new thread so that it is visible to all those who might think about looking for a job here.

Humana is an awesome company if you prefer,

1.  Being ignored after giving appropriate suggestions.
2.  Being singled out for not brown-nosing.
3.  Getting unfair treatment for not licking the as--s of managers.
4.  To backstab people personally and professionally.
5.  Dishonesty and practice it.
6.  Working remotely and being of a preferred gender, color, or race.
7.  Accumulating certifications just for the sake of it.
8. To spend millions of dollars to change a perfectly working, error-free application.
9. To talk about modernization once a week and go to meetups once a month or so; however, make certain that you never implement any of those.
10. To create redundancy by not sharing knowledge, stay in your current role forever.
11. To witness contractors being hired as associates simply for being doormats.
12. To use jargon with non-technical/management people and become an innovator on your team.

Great place to work? Only as long as they keep you employed. Humana has a reputation of over hiring and then doing layoffs. It would appear that Humana hire people with a attention to detail, but when it comes to a layoff, they use a very poor selection process. Loyalty is not rewarded. Ability is not rewarded.

Humana follow a pointless process of personal goals which is not understood and becomes a paper exercise. Finally the foundational values are actually meaningless. Try to follow them and you will be collecting unemployment fairly quickly.

@hzp+1kGMED4m I am sure you are just trying to Troll people. Humana has determined that you WILL have MLK day off but they have not given you anything, they just removed it from your Personal Time off. What they have in fact done, is removed choice from those who do not wish to mark MLK day.

I like Humana because they are giving MLK day off. 2yrs back we were not getting MLK day off. They are now giving importance to POC and LGBTQ+

Many will agree with this, however many will not, especially if their performance has been fantastic and they’ve ended up RIFed. Now I’m sure you will say, if their performance was so fantastic why were they let go? My response to this is good people get laid off every day and it’s not always fair. It really stings when you know that there are thousands that just sit around quietly quitting. While Humana has been good to me, I can say the last four to five years have made me question what company I’m working for.
