Just wondering, being 7 days out I am sure managers/someone would have heard something now about potential layoffs. Who might be affected?
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?
Did anyone notice that as soon as any thread comes up regarding HIH or offshoring in general, they’re quickly deleted? Who’s moderating this site? I’ve noticed 2 threads deleted recently, but I’m sure there’s been more — read more
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
SNP Case Management Support Group
If there are any SNP CMs out there I really want to know how y’all are surviving this? There are no amount of cigarettes that can calm this madness down! I’ve started my job search. Here’s to hoping I can escape this insane asylum. — read more
How is Cigna tracking hybrid employees
Zscaler? ID?
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
9/12 is supposed to be BIG - How big?
Can anyone put some real numbers to this whether estimate or approximate? Specifically speaking to those "in the know". The person who says the JE calendar is real and they have it - does your calendar have a game plan as to 9/12 is x% of work... — read more
The Why?
We all know it happening. Can anyone outline the WHY it is happening? There has been speculation that fines were imposed due to algorithm’s denying claims inappropriately, the need to inflate DCs stock portfolio, need to staff India, and other such... — read more
Over-employment at Cigna is rampant
I am feeling overwhelmed because I am having to do extra work for my co-workers who seem to be taking advantage of the situation at Cigna. It's frustrating because I've been picking up their slack. I think Cigna's management should conduct a thorough... — read more
ANXIETY AND TOXIC CULTURE - ELT WILL HAVE TO ANSWER
Giving my all and dedicating the last nearly 20 years to this company it is sad and horrifying to see the culture take a nosedive. I've been on anxiety and depression meds, meds to help me sleep, suffered major health issues over the last several... — read more
Succession Planning
For managers who have participated in recent staff ranking activities and succession planning, including selecting your own successor - how are you feeling about it? Do these activities indicate future layoffs and is this an indicator that you'll be... — read more
So are we kinda, sorta safe till next month?
Following the logic of that particular Thursday in month layoffs setup?
How bad is it?
I’ve been hearing more areas have been affected. Can we at least count on Thursday and done? No surprises tomorrow?
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
The 8/15/24 Layoffs pregame thread
Let’s celebrate with those who want ti be laid off and mourn with those who do not. I think tomorrow is gonna be a big day.
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?
After layoff, how soon does Cigna pay out PTO?
Do they pay it out when severance starts, or when severance ends?
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
Band 4 Layoffs
Anyone hear anything about CIP?
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.
Anyone got this too ?

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.
Is it bad that I'm disappointed there were no layoffs today?
If there was a way, I'd volunteer. I'm really tired of this place and how it changed over the years. I'm tired of the constant uncertainty. I'm thinking that a new start is exactly what I need, and if I can do it with severance, even better. I don't... — read more
Is there a layoff tomorrow?
Been thinking about it a lot.
Does Cigna review job sites looking for active employee resumes?
Has anyone ever heard of Cigna HR or recruiters perusing job sites and taking disciplinary action/termination if they find the resume of a current employee?
Bloomfield office
Hey Fellas , how do you like the vibe of Bloomfield office ? It was okay when flex days were an option . But the anchor days su-k. Just too many people and I feel like so numb now . Everyone just sitting at desks and taking Webex calls . Managers and... — read more
