Did anyone just finish listening to the first meeting? What were your thoughts? Seemed a bit sketchy to me... 🤔

People read the letter ...consult a lawyer...they plainly state this ...why you may ask. If you read this carefully they have worded it with no promises of a payout. It plainly states upon APPROVAL, to which this approval will come from the same... — read more

Who all received MAP 3 rating and what was your merit and RRP payout %? And GL.

I am in C&S. I did not get any sort of notification and I don't think anybody where I am at was impacted. Otherwise, the gossip mill would have been flying wild. I found this out via Tik Tok and the news of the 30,000 buy out. Was this just one big... — read more

Just heard that they are targeting RRP next….formal communication next week.

Can anyone confirm if you take the UHC severance package if you can get unemployment in Texas? I know every state is different but it does state you could get unemployment benefits if you quit due to no fault of your own. Opinions?

I am struggling to work today because i am so anxious. I work in contracting- I have not seen anything about it on my side but are people still being notified?

After thinking about it and comparing my state unemployment I’d get about 8k more with severance. It should be a no brainer but I do really love my job. I think I’m leaning 80% towards leaving but will wait for the info calls to solidify my... — read more 

United Healthcare supposedly prides itself on how it treats employees. Because of mismanagement and cyber attacks, those employees UHC "cares" about are discarded. Witty and the rest of the crooked senior management team are hypocrites. American... — read more 

All I hear from coworkers, whether on this forum or in person, is how they cannot wait to leave, how they would volunteer for layoffs, and how severance is the only thing keeping them here. Well, they just got their wish. Based on that, there should... — read more 

I’m close enough to retirement that I don’t need to think twice about leaving. After ten years here, I’m more than ready to part ways with both this company and the health industry.

Mass severance offered by may 1st 2025

Does anyone have insight into which departments within the orgs that are affected by the voluntary severance option would see involuntarily layoffs first if they don't meet their quota (I'm assuming they will not).

Are they generally well liked, or do employees wish they had different leadership? I've worked here for 8 years, and as a lower-level employee I've never had any kind of interaction with them. After the Thompson shooting lots of people asked me about... — read more

How many here have a mandatory meeting scheduled Monday? I am one hour that does

Starting a thread to discuss merit and bonuses now that annual reviews are occurring. I received a 4 rating with a 1% merit increase and 100% RRP bonus. Happy with the bonus, unhappy with the merit increase which does not keep up with COL and... — read more 

Does anyone know what this mandatory meeting is on Monday? I work in specialty benefits. What a great way to start the weekend.

Has anyone heard that they may offer an option for people to leave for a severance package, as opposed to just being laid off? I wonder how much severance they really offer…either way.

Seriously? They are jumping on the bandwagon that this Administration is going to “help” us streamline operations vs the previous administration?! Insane!

We just told company wide announcement tomorrow and it’s not good.
