I keep seeing post about October layoffs but no one is saying what department is in jeopardy? Do we not know? I’m just wondering if this time if it will be claims, benefits, Behavior Health, Evicore??? I know IT has already been hit pretty hard this year but wondering who’s department is next

@jh that just sounds like paranoia and we can’t adequately weigh in without context. Never heard of something like that before, but could be (and most likely is) that your friend’s manager now has a recurring meeting at that day/time and moved him to one more convenient for the manager.
Managers don’t take preemptive steps like that. They will keep your in the dark and act like nothing is happening til the day the news is broken to you.
So, a colleague of mine has asked a curious question. His 1 x 1 were always on a Tuesday at like 9 am CST or 10 am. Without any notice or advance emails, all of a sudden the 1x1's changed to like 8 a.m. on Thursday. He feels this is a move towards the 10/8 JE, but that date has been suspect for months now . Thoughts?
lol bootlick away. eeoc exists for a reason and, believe it or not, a company cannot run its operation how it sees fit.
@ff lol file away. A company can run its operation how it sees fit.
@fd They do the layoffs in Q4 to be able to take the severance expense this year to start Jan2027 off with reduced expenses.
I hear that EEOC complaints can be filed over the offshoring and H-1B hiring (from what I gather on some video that EEOC tweeted a day ago.)
It will be IT most likely, HIH is all IT, possibly end of September or first week of Oct so that they have clean start to Q4
At least some IT...HIH job postings should give hints
@dn same
Couldn't happen soon enough for me
@de Indians in the US are losing their H-1B’s and selling their homes and moving back to India
What comes around - goes around
I wonder when all the Indians who came to the US to take American IT jobs will find out their jobs have been taken by those who remained in India.
It seems they are already asking for those laid off to apply for other positions. Cigna has no idea what they are doing. You think they're capable of hiring good lawyers lol. Sue the sh-t out of their incompetent as--s. Money does not matter in strength. Period. Cigna has always su-ked no matter how strong their hand has seemed.
IT is always in jeopardy. U.S. staff is being cut to the bone.
writing is on the wall, possibly more offshoring. I genuinely believe they might be trying to have no american workers left
@ak Cigna is no longer an American company; just a shell of one.
Focus on Lead To One, saar!
Look at job openings in HIH and the Philippines. Those are the departments that will be hit
No one knows but probably IT
Because of the expansion in India, IT will keep on getting hit.
