October layoffs - Aetna

Ageism?

Every single person I know that’s been laid off is 50 years or older, or very close. All of them are tenured, high-performing people. Is there something here? Also, I cannot understand for the life of me why they didn’t attempt to get rid of low... — read more

Another #Winning Idea from K

Announce “new responsibilities” for the leadership team. That’s the same tired generic BS that got us to this point in the first place.

Aetna leadership?

The new guy they just named as president of Aetna probably isn’t going to make employees’ lives any more at ease with future layoffs. He’s a private equity and investment banking guy, now leading Aetna. So I’m guessing things are going to become... — read more

Bon Voyage

To the "leader" that lost their job because of rampant fiscal mismanagement that occurred in one of your departments for YEARS -- you should have listened. So glad someonedropped the wrong word in the right ear. Reports don't lie.

Feel like I got a lifeboat off the Titanic

I am tired. Glad to be off this merry go round, sinking ship, whatever you want to call it. Packed up equipment and ready for a new beginning. This layoff has destroyed my summer and made me miserable for weeks. Best wishes and prayers for all!

WARN Notices

With the WARN notices, are they letting the employees know that they are being laid-off or will they just find out closer to that time? Ex. PA doesn't have job titles listed.
