I just was offered a telecommuter position in Minnesota. I was wondering if anyone know if there are plans to expand the RTO radius?

If you were laid off today or tomorrow check in. What department?

Any news of layoffs within ECS tomorrow?

I got a low rating. When my manager sends the review to me should I add employee comments? Once entered who reviews them? Thanks in advance!

I've learned the old pattern of doing layoff's on Thursdays is being modified this year. They'll be doing them on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays for the foreseeable future. There were folks let go yesterday and there was one today in Optum... — read more

Throughout the year, I was consistently told that I was exceeding expectations and performing at a high level. My feedback conversations reflected strong performance and meaningful contributions to the team. However, during my annual review, I... — read more 

Received my annual review, rated a 2 with no concrete examples of why just comments about working partners provided great feedback but leadership felt differently. Was this a surprise? In the sense that I received feedback randomly less than 5 times... — read more 

Any news on layoffs/RIFs? Bonus/Raise? Hoping the Client Management/Sales area is taking less of a beating but I doubt it.

For all folks who are waiting on 2/19, just wanted to let you know that I and another person from my small 15 people group got laid off today.

I don't know why, but this time I'm more anxious than usual. I guess this constant fear of losing my job is finally getting to me in new and awful ways.

I keep hearing that Archwell is going to buy the clinics in Florida? So there won't be anymore wellmed or optum clinics. Has anyone heard anything???

Been applying internally, but keep getting the thanks but no thanks emails! Fully qualified for positions I’m applying for, very frustrating!

So, this week and some (maybe) of last week there were annual reviews. More until week’s end. No sign of a calendar appointment for my review. Trying not to take it personally but starting to really wonder. Anyone else in this boat?

NO bonuses this year. 2026 will be worse than 2025. Layoffs are going from quarterly to now every other month. This part has not been confirmed, but rumor is that Optum is going away and only UHC will remain.

This Friday when I have my performance evaluation, if I do not get a merit (haven’t had one in two years) I am totally giving up on my work ethic. I can no longer let this team think this is okay and that I will continue to work hard. At this point... — read more 

Post your $ figure here chat. Are we cooked?

Anyone know if 3s are getting any sort of raise this year? My coworkers got a 4 and she only got 1%.

My boss scheduled a 30 minute meeting with my direct report tomorrow at 5. What could it be? Are they being laid off? Am I? My performance review is on next week, , could they just be getting their perspective on me? This is making me so nervous!

My performance evaluation is incomplete by my manager. Could this mean I’m on the list for 2/19?

Has anyone actually seen an LLM AI product in production here? Management is telling us we have to strive towards this. Who is asking for this? What do the customers think?

It seems apparent there will be a RIF this week on 2/19. Just curious if anyone has any insights in to the business segments and scale. I’ve read Housecalls, Wellmed, and others. Is that mainly optum health?

Nobody talks about how job hunting starts to eat at you after a while. You send out applications and hear nothing, and eventually you start questioning your own abilities. I used to know what I brought to a team. Now I'm not so sure. How do you hold... — read more 

It's pretty much certain that RIFs will happen this week. As someone impacted by a recent RIF, here is what I can share. What's done is done already. Regardless of what you colleagues or business partners think of you, your manager has already... — read more 

I'm already so tired of this job, and even more exhausted by these seemingly endless layoffs.

It appears an RIF is planned for the coming week at Optum. I’m interested in how this will be carried out, and wonder if they will adhere to the WARN Act. They’ve been sued before, and if I have new found time on my... — read more 

Please share any updates. To summarize: there are reports from some posters re visit cancelations, no zone assignments, and lighters schedules. So far it appears that only CA and PA were mentioned. Since 02/19 is next week please share any... — read more 

What are the other Optum / UHG layoff boards that are legit and have activity or is this the only one?

Are they just going to keep slashing our benefits bit by bit until people get fed up and quit? It's a cost-effective way to reduce staff without the bad press of mass layoffs. It feels calculated and cruel.

This is apparently company wide, according to the "incentive programs & policies" sparq page.

Anyone else get this mandate this week from their manager as a SWE? I dont understand how this is even possible or how it can sustain itself. I asked my manager if we have any ideas or plans for what any customer or user would want in an AI feature... — read more
