Do not allow your direct leaders to attempt to normalize layoffs as though it were just part of doing business and should not be considered personal.
Layoffs are VERY personal and should be considered as such. Some people never recover and end up losing their homes and end up homeless.
SPEAK OUT!!!
@bm sounds exactly like the leader who laid me off
@c7 Which is ridiculous if you consider that 2% or even 3% or 4% has covered the rate of inflation in years.
What a sickening disgusting greedy corporation, Humana is.
I was an engineer and was therefor over 12 years, worked late, worked weekends and was never able to afford a house.
Cannot stand this corporation.
Those with the most experience are usually the first to go. Those 2% raises compound over the years, so savings outweighs dedication and knowledge when it’s time to cut.
@b9 Sadly, I understand where you are coming from. I wish I was a mega millionaire or billionaire and I would take these health insurance corporations to town.
It sometimes feels like there is nobody to help us. Things did appear a bit hopeful when our current prez majorily reduced their CMS payments but then he went back on that.
Leaders are incompetent and can careless about you If you are loyal, they don’t care. Most of these leaders need to be audited and looked at by HR. There are better places to work don’t give your all to this company.
@ax perhaps I’m jaded, but I don’t see it happening. As a consumer, I would be more interested in what news reports and the stock market said regarding a company not employee complaints. Why? Not because the complaints may or may not be valid but because I have no way to if it’s just a disgruntled employee or really an issue that has nothing to do with Humana. I realize it’s an issue with Humana. I work here. I just signed up for Medicare and I did not choose Humana for that matter. I didn’t choose any Medicare advantage plan not after working for one, but we see companies, letting people off all the time for these exact same reasons and nothing is done. It’s disgusting it certainly not the America first that was campaign with all the jobs going offshore no as a bigger picture things may happen that will change that process across the nation eventually, but ask for Humana? Things are not gonna change not in any near future that’s going to help any of us working there now. It’s become a toxic company. That’s sad. It’s unfortunate that my livelihood my sanity and my stress level are not going to be impacted in the near future by complaining. I have to take control over that myself and actively look for a different position which I am doing.
@ac Although, it may be true that it will not prevent you from getting laid off, due to the fact that the entire workforce is undergoing a complete realignment due to both AI & Offshoring (and H-1B Visas), I think it is important for as many people to sound off with their displeasure here and every single social media platform you may be part of.
Why, because others besides just employees here may see those complaints and be made aware of what is going on. And the more people that are made aware the more likelihood that persons in real power and even ultra wealthy that have a conscience may wield their power to do something that makes a difference.
There are wealthy retired people that do card and may have the right persons on speed dial that may ne able to do something.
speaking out will do jack sh-t. It’s a company that they can do whatever they want as long as it’s legal.
@aa The important thing is that everyone is happy and healthy.
The leaders do not care.
