Topics regarding layoffs at Cigna

It was about time to abandon Cigna

With all layoffs and increased offshoring, I decided not to stick around anymore. Looked for another job for a couple of months, and found a decent replacement. I’m supposed to start in two weeks. Guys, leave this place. There’s no future in Cigna... — read more

Layoffs update

I’m new to Cigna, and I don’t know yet how things are done here. I’m just hearing all the time about September layoffs, yet nobody can say anything for certain. Anyone have any information? I heard that some people were laid off on Friday. I don’t... — read more

Avoid Cigna like the plague

The ELT is only interested in their bonuses and they couldn't care less about the company as a whole or employees. Talented people are leaving in droves just to get away from here.

Evernorth's Move to Hyderabad

The opening of the Hyderabad office, along with the fact that the role names are different compared to U.S. job titles, signals that Evernorth (and by proxy Cigna) are looking to lay of US employees (through job elimination) and move these jobs... — read more 

Who determines who gets laid off?

The people who were affected from my team in the last two layoffs made no sense to me. We have a good manager, and I am positive that it couldn't have been her idea to get rid of some of our highest performers. Which makes me wonder, who is... — read more

MA leadership

Who thinks MA will actually make it to the sale given how it’s falling apart horribly in the SNP world and most likely all over. The most inefficient incompetent leadership I’ve ever seen running this plan. Wow! How is this being allowed? Who hired... — read more

Look for other opportunities

I managed to pull myself out of Cigna’s clutches. I was once putting a lot of effort into doing my job well. I wanted to prove to myself and the others that I was good at what I do. In exchange I got nothing, but experienced a lot of anxiety and... — read more 

I know layoffs are scary

I understand that the majority of us can’t afford to lose the job and that’s the most important reason we endure in the jobs we have. This may sound callous given the reality of job dependence, but one should be happy to be let go from this ugly and... — read more 

The Rise Of Fake Job Listings

There is a recent video from news outlet CNBC about the rise of ghost jobs. These are fake job listings that companies list with no intention of hiring. Cigna is guilty of doing this as I have seen several listing for jobs and no manager or director... — read more 

I got lucky

Being laid off was a gift to my mental health. If you're still at Cigna, trust me when I tell you that layoffs are nothing to be afraid of. It's hard to land at a place with a more toxic culture and work environment. My new job helped me see that the... — read more 

What’s happening with threads?

Any updates about Sept layoffs?

Too many rumors going around to be about nothing. And even if there were no rumors, it’s reasonable to expect there will be bloodbath soon. Most big companies are in a cost-cutting frenzy, falling for AI hype and/or planning more offshoring. They... — read more

Good that reorgs improved org and management

I’m sarcastic, ofc. Just pointing out that it’s getting worse every time. One thing I learned over the years is not to care how badly Cigna is organized and managed, how much work is left after layoffs, and how much work pops up all the time due to... — read more

Over-employment at Cigna is rampant

ANXIETY AND TOXIC CULTURE - ELT WILL HAVE TO ANSWER

Don’t ever clean up others’ mess

To all of us who will be unfortunate to still work here: Don’t pick up work after those who will be laid off; Don’t try to clean up the mess night offshore teams make; Don’t ever do anything outside the scope of your workplace; Don’t ever, ever, be a... — read more 

Bereavement leave?

Does anyone know what Cigna’s bereavement leave policy entails? Is it dependent on who passes away in terms of how many days off you get?

50 Mile Radius?

Does anyone know of an employee who lives within a 50 mile radius of an office "as the crow flies" but for driving distance it's more than 50 miles? Sometimes the difference is 10+ miles. Are those people really still forced to come in? Has anyone... — read more 

Keep your skills updated

This might be a bad job market, but it's even worse for those whose skills are outdated. There are some available jobs. If you want to even have a chance, don't get complacent. Just my 2 cents.

Cobra?

Does anyone know how much COBRA coverage costs now?

Any clue on when layoffs are coming?

Some rumors indicate the end of August or sometimes in Sept. Do we know more? I’ve polished my resume a while ago, and been sending it out. Just in case. Change would actually be nice.
