I have heard some rumors that some RIFs will be announced tomorrow. Has anyone seen any meetings from their managers?
What else?
So the RTO rumors were spot on. What else is coming down the pike?
Open letter to those in charge
Dear C suite executives, 🖕🏻 Sincerely all of us p-e on’s you pretend to care about. Union is coming. It’s time. We’re done. You take away our bonuses, our benefits, and flexibility. You treat us as a number, see what happens when a group of... — read more
Elevance is the worst
I have worked for several different MCO's before landing at Anthem/Elevance. Two of the MCO's lost their state contracts for Medicaid which was why I eventually ended up at Anthem. Let me tell you their benefits and raises and bonuses don't even come... — read more
Who else?
Gail has absolutely ran us into the ground. I think her contract is up in 2026 though, I recall reading that somewhere. If this is true, who would you put in charge? Who could do better, from the current ELT? I honestly don't see anybody who could... — read more
Return to work
Here it is, Elevance Health officially pulling people leaders and director equivalent individuals contributors back to the office 3 days a week. No doubt this is a prelude to get people to quit before more RIFs come. Even the Q&A provides some BS... — read more
Newsflash: Elevance isn't losing sleep over your career
At the end of the day, you're just a number on a spreadsheet to them. When push comes to shove, they'll always choose profits over people - that's just how publicly traded companies operate. Your manager might be a decent human being, but they don't... — read more
Worst Team
The leadership team CII falls significantly short in fostering a healthy and equitable workplace culture. The actual contributors—the working-level employees—are often overlooked particularly from offshore, while mid-senior and senior-level members... — read more

Badging out of the building
Has anyone heard that the pulse point buildings will begin requiring all associates to “swipe” out to exit?
Next round of layoffs in May
When are the layoffs planned for the month of May?
Quiet-Firing
I know "quiet quitting" was a viral topic a year ago or so, but does anyone feel like they are being "Quiet Fired?" With all of the RIFs, I am grateful to have a job, but more and more of my responsibilities are disappearing. I have never gotten a... — read more

Town Halls
So many Town Halls with no information
Elevance Health “Town Hall”
Will we hear about RTO? No AIP/QIP? Here we go!
RIF Selection Question for People Leaders
I know this question may have been asked in the past but I never had clarity. Who is making the decision on who stays and who leaves? Are the people leaders involved? Staff VP? What are the driving factors? Salary, performance?
HR: Talent Review Process Director & Director equivalent
Starting April 28 must update Workday Career Profile. Is this another means to target ppl for rifs? Or, a standard protocol?
RTO and reorg
Does anyone know if the coming RTO mandate means that remote teams will be dismantled? If the reporting structure is going to change to reporting to a leader in your local office?
RTO?
Is there really an upcoming RTO? I have spoken with those in leadership who are not tracking this. Im not sure how its feesable with the offices and locations we shut down. Can anyone say with a doubt they know this is coming? If youre work at home... — read more
So glad I’m retired
After reading these posts I think I am one of the lucky ones who had a full career at Anthem. I feel bad for the folks with 10+ years to go. It’s depressing to read about RIF after RIF. I wish everyone the best of luck
Ohio
Any word on more RIFS this month? Last month the 3/20 lay off prediction for GBD departments was accurate and I'm wondering if there are future date predictions & where if so?

QIP vs AIP
I don’t understand why Elevance has not leveled out QIP and AIP. No it is not a salary and grade level differential. My team has both QIP and AIP and salaries are within range of each other and grade level but QIP fares much better especially this... — read more
RTO Rumors
Any truth to the retuning to office starting this summer?
Staff VP will be addressing AIP?
On a call today our staff bpm announced she will be discussing AIP on Friday and it will be a recorded call. Seems rather foreboding?
Current Employees Blocked

DPAIO VP Hiring

Health Solutions Group Chat
What’s the word on the street… DEI hire COO SH still driving all Provider operations into the ground? Provider and member data still being offshored illegally? SPS and system feeds still inoperable? RIFs still at an all time high?

Are we all going to be honest about our frustrations? And if we do, are there any real consequences? Will it just add you to the RIFF list?
Upcoming Layoff
Hearing there will be major cuts this month including second round in departments impacted in March. What are you hearing? I think the board is doing all it can to make us look better for a sale.
