“Sir” Andrew “T”witty
He is a disgrace to leadership. How he obtained the title of “Sir” is suspect. He and others of his ilk have destroyed the confidence in healthcare. Why he still receiving $21 million in salary plus perks is absolutely ludicrous.

It's a strange feeling to root for your own termination
It's like a perverse lottery, where the "winners" get to leave and escape the toxic environment, while the rest are left to wait for the next round. The worst part is the waiting. It's a slow, agonizing torture. It's a strange feeling to root for... — read more

UHG has turned into a joke
As one layoff round is done, the next one is in the planning. There is never a break or reprieve. Working under these conditions has become unbearable. I've come to hate my job.
