I was laid off about 2 years ago and got a job somewhere else. Im being offered a very high salary to come back.
This is probably the wrong forum to ask this but looking for opinions of other high level leaders (lets say band 5+) on whether this is a good move. Im happy where I am and have a defined path to a very high level position but its a very far commute and significantly less pay than Cigna is offering.
If they give you back all your years of service, make a decision based on how many weeks you’d get along with how much your pulling down and for how long. If you’re 50+, go for it.
@OP run
@OP of course go back if you’re an Indian, or going back to a band 5+ position
Don’t do it—absolutely not worth it with the direction this company has taken.
This is like a core that escaped into the woods asking if it should come back to the sla-ghterhouse

What you all are missing is we continue to invest in areas that will bring value. That isn’t changing.
I'd go full send! Come back here and get canned again with a nice package... you'd be a legend in my book.
If you’re too happy, getting comfortable, and missing a little uncertainty in life, why not go back? Nothing like a familiar place to bring back old memories… and new surprises!
@OP Considering that the c suite’tards are eliminating band 5s and flattening the organization, and the company has become extremely toxic, I would say hard pass. But who knows. Are you feeling lucky?
I wouldn’t trust them hard no
It would be one heck of a gamble to return to CI. Outside of ELT SLT level no one has long term security. A roll of the dice at best.
If you're in US, there's going to be another planned big layoff wave in a few months, seemingly targeting more of the management layer. Pretty sure everyone here is just waiting to see if they're on the chopping block. More money, but for how long is what you should be asking yourself
