My entire outlook on working for Cigna has changed since the brilliant “Future of Work” plan was implemented. I am a senior manager who’s been at Cigna for 17 years. I lead a team of 37 people but only one is in my same office. I have worked from... — read more
Davis Cordani is...
...getting filthy, rotten, stinking rich off our as--s. Since 2020 he has cashed out over $216 MILLION in stock options. That doesn't include his salary and other compensation. It's listed here:... — read more
Anchor days- monitoring?
For the anchor days does anyone know how it will be monitored? Or maybe when they expect monitoring will die off? I honestly just don’t want to go in at all and see how long I last but don’t know if that will happen.
When to jump ship?
Question for those looking or have left. How do you balance the difference between salary and PTO days at a potential employer? Does less money and PTO days automatically disqualify them or do you look at the overall culture of the other employer... — read more
Greed has taken over Cigna and the stench of it is overwhelming.
I am sadden that Cigna "who I thought was better than all of this" has stooped so low. Cigna is in a very unique industry and position where it can benefit many Americans and people world wide to make the overall quality of life "Vitality" better. In... — read more
What happened to our coffee
These power hungry weirdos can’t even give us our free coffee back after forcing everybody to come back to the office. It’s pathetic. Any time I mention this to a friend outside of Cigna, they are d-mbfounded that we don’t have coffee for employees... — read more
Working for a large corporation is no longer a good or safe way to earn a living in America
Many large corporations have recently exhibited ruthlessness when it comes to creating profits and value for shareholders. Cigna is a prime example of this and puts on a hypocritical facade that pretends to care for its members and employees when all... — read more
Anchor Days Are A Failure
Second week in there aren’t any more people in CT on anchor days than there used to be. Plus there are managers, directors, and VPs who have only been in a few times since I was forced back in September. “Dina’s we say, not as we do” All this does... — read more
Re-hire job eliminated staff?
I have to ask has any areas where opportunities and open positions were posted that they actually even considered hiring/rehiring staff that were recently job eliminated due to consolidation? I know so many colleagues who were let go and I’m... — read more
How big is the 6/20 layoff supposed to be?
And does anyone know which areas will be impacted? Sounds like IT will lose some roles to be moved to Hyderbad. And Case Management will obviously be another area.
Declining Vitality
FOW is negatively impacting my vitality by adding stress, anxiety, anger and depression to my day. I am adding medical, behavioral and pharmaceutical expenses to Cigna. It has disrupted my 12 year WAH schedule. I can no longer walk with neighborhood ... — read more
Illness at the CTC?
Anyone know of something going around at the CTC? A coworker has been at the CTC this week and is now reporting feeling feverish and unwell. This is exactly why I don't want to go back to the office. I got COVID a few months ago and I'm still not... — read more
How did your coworkers react to your layoff?
I was separated in January. I think it's interesting which coworkers contact you after job elimination and most glaringly who doesn't. I truly appreciated those that reached out. I had made contact with my team and many others that I knew for years... — read more
The panel was literal propaganda and cringe
It was amateur hour and not even well-designed to make it sound like the office was such a selling point. Just be honest and say the only "selling point" is that the office may or may not have complimentary coffee for everyone. Oh I guess it's also a... — read more
Commuting on Company Time?
I saw a comment someone made about making the commute to and from the office on Cigna's time (i.e. during your work hours). A few months ago, there was a Webex q&a panel meeting thing about FOW and people in the chat were frustrated and saying... — read more
For those recently laid off
Were you given a notification date with a later termination date, or were you terminated immediately?
How is the first Shackle Day?
Here, a few more people than previous weeks but nowhere near 100%.
Cigna Medicare - PTO and HCSC?
Reading through the IRIS FAQ about the HCSC divesture, I am not too clear about the severance and PTO payout. I think the timing of the divesture is January 2025, and it's my understanding that Cigna will payout un-used PTO to employees who... — read more
I am grateful to this management
Things got so bad that it kickstarted me into looking for a new job - which I now found! Better pay, better bennies, and (hopefully) better culture. I couldn't be happier.
It issues at their worst
Evernorth employee here. Our systems are currently down and Contact Center can't even make calls or take them plus pharmacy systems down. Truly amazing sh-t going on!
What is the layoff day for June?
The 20th, or the 27th?
Act: Complete mid-year review by June 21
“Employees are responsible for self-assessing their performance and progress against their goals. Managers are responsible for feedback…” I have been with Cigna for 15 years and dont remember being asked to do this. Weird
Contractor Layoffs
I’m an IT manager and just found out I have to fire all my contractors (US and offshore) which is about 3/4 the team and I have to replace them with FTEs from Hyderabad. Some of these guys have been on the team for 5-6 years and I am going to lose... — read more
Cap on salary increase for internal candidates?
Does Cigna cap the increase when moving from role to role? I know some companies only allow a certain percentage above current salary for internal candidates, regardless of the role's range. What's Cigna's policy?
Medicare Town Hall
Any thoughts on the Medicare town hall yesterday? 🙄
Evernorth Specialty departments Phoenix, closures
Warn notice received today. Podiatry, Vision, Audiology, Optometry, Pediatrics and Urgent care closures announced today. Thank you 'Leadership team' for driving us into the ground.
IT problems
Has anyone else noticed a significant increase in IT-related issues that are impacting the business and taking much longer to resolve? Wondering if related to the mass layoffs in IT. Imagine that, Cigna, repercussions for actions! And we are stuck... — read more
Hyderabad “Innovation” Hub 💩
On top of general “workforce reductions”, Cigna is actively eliminating onshore roles and including entire teams only to rehire them from India to save a penny. You have been warned! This has been tried many times before and failed miserably. Entire... — read more
Holding on hoping for severance but tech issues are bringing me to my limit.
For those on production down time is treated as a personal failure rather than a company failure and is highly scrutinized. My applications have been getting progressively worse with every upgrade. There's little chance there will be layoffs in my... — read more
Do all Band 4 (Sr Advisors) get LTI?
Also, what is the current US 'Market Range' for Band 4 (Sr Advisor)?
I just read there were layoffs last week
I have no idea how I managed to miss that. Can somebody please share what exactly happened? Who and how many were impacted? Should we worry about a continuation sometime soon? It's scary to know layoffs are happening within the company while most of... — read more
I got written up yesterday for WAH
I am classified as WAH and am Band 4 in Marketing and I got put on a PIP yesterday for only “working” an average of 7.2 hours per day remotely. Apparently, I was able to be tracked on how much time I was actively using “work related” tools. My boss... — read more
Pulse Survey Results?
Any ideas on when we can expect the results of the pulse survey? It has been several weeks since the submission deadline.
Request to view your Personal Profile
In IRIS and stumbled across “Personal Profile”. It looks like you can submit an official request to view your profile HR has on you and you can challenge anything that you don’t agree on or how it was stated. Has anyone done this and if so what... — read more
Any layoffs happening today?
Case managers?
Cigna is hiring in India instead of the US
Hey, Cigna has a hiring freeze in the US but is hiring employees in India. If you want a job as an employee (not a contractor) with Cigna move to India. India employees get free lunch daily and some employees get free transportation home. The India... — read more
The RTO not so bad thread - deleted?
Nice one. Bury as many issues as you can and maybe, just maybe, they will magically go away and we will all hold hands around the campfire and sing kumbaya together...
The goal is attrition, not layoffs
After systematically piling more and more work onto fewer and fewer employees, particularly US-based employees whose WFH flexibility enabled them to absorb increased workloads, company leaders appear to have chosen to punish rather than reward these... — read more
