Companies are requires to give 60 days notice if they’re going to lay off 50+ people. The only way to get around this is to lay off in smaller numbers or spread layoffs across different locations. Since the Cigna is doing mass layoffs, it seems... — read more

Is it an email notice sent the day of 1/29? Is it a scheduled meeting? If so, how far in advance do your receive the meeting invite and what is the subject title? Who is on the call? HR? Your manager? How have folks been notified in the past?
U3000
Heard from a Band 5+ that Sales and Implementation U3000 is going to get hit this week. Any truth to this?
Worried about layoffs?
You're not powerless. You can certainly fight back. The whole point of the layoffs are to keep the already struggling Cigna stock value up. The goal of this is to please investors and because the CEO, David Cordani, is payed mostly in stocks (no... — read more
Is therapy a common thing now?
Just wondering if I'm the only one who started therapy recently because of this job. Almost all of my stress is from work. I was even thinking about medication because of it.

VRP vs. JE Benefits
Can someone explain the differences in what you are offered if you take the VRP vs what you get if laid off?

VRP in future?
Any talk of VRP in future? It would be nice to plan ahead.
Bonus/Merit Funding
Looking through my team tonight, it appears that we are nearly fully funded. Merit is 2.5-3.0% and bonuses at 100%. Stock seemed a bit lower, but not too crazy.
JE's in February
If (or should I say "when" ) job eliminations happen in February after they review VRP numbers, will those eliminated still receive their 2025 bonus payout?
Sales on the list
I work in Sales and there are so many whispers that we are going to get hit hard. Does anyone else feel like they are walking on eggshells every day? We have lost a few AEs already.
Bonus payout in March - What is last day you need to be employed.
Hello- I'm lucky enough to have found myself another opportunity and trying to determine what is the last date I need to be employed to get my bonus.
Confirmed FTE's on 1/29
Weird timing of the month. It appears that this layoff largely depends on VRP acceptance. They want to start the year by offloading a huge burden. I've also heard that this is going to be a quarterly event for 2026. Has anybody seen any WARN report... — read more
What’s the bonus funded at?
Any news on bonus funding?
VRP and 2025 Bonus
So, we need to confirm our participation in the VRP before 2025 bonus amounts are decided. Seems to me that a manager would want to minimize bonus amounts for soon-to-retire employees and bolster those who will remain on. Does anyone have any... — read more

Declining VRP... Only to be let go soon after... Any stats?
After talking with colleagues current and past, someone had asked does anyone know of statistics of people who declined the last VRP, only to be let go soon thereafter? As a band 4 for some time, seeing this all play out last year into this year... — read more
Finding out pay was low at Cigna

Lets Talk About Verint
If using this to track our every move why aren’t all bands (3 and 4 specifically) required to use it if not directly tied to production? Seems to me if they are looking to cut people this would be where to start - if your Verient consistently shows... — read more
VRP vs Layoff Severance?
So, if you are offered VRP and decline it, and then get laid off anyway, is the only difference COBRA coverage? Do you still get 2 weeks per year of service? Are there any other differences or perqs to VRP? TIA!
What is this all about?

Office Renovation
If Cigna is in such financial straits, why are they leasing more office space and spending millions upon millions of dollars renovating offices that nobody wants to be in? Make it make sense, please!
Any idea when layoffs might start?
The latest rumor was sometime in January, and that they could be massive. Has anyone heard any updates?
