#silencefromleadership

I could barely find any news on it, and I looked, trust me.

Pretty much every team experienced JEs. Lost a lot of tenured, experienced people. Doesn't even feel that great to still be here with things looking so grim. Still no official announcements from leadership - just word of mouth.

Several CS3 leads were impacted, Patient Cloud also appears to be another target area - they're doing it very quietly but people are noticing...

According to an email sent in December. They were set to talk this month. Did they? Are they still? I don't understand why the complete silence all the time by the company and the union. I can see why they wouldn't give specific details while negotiating but they could at least give us the most general description of the current situation, right?

It seems we always have bigger layoffs right around earnings time and I’m getting nervous. There is an absence of transparency where there was in the past, speaking for myself only. Earnings call on Feb 4

Are we going to be getting official memo saying how many were laid off ??

By this point we’re usually given at least a target or some directional guidance. Instead, nothing. Total silence. That’s not an accident, it’s deliberate. When leadership stops communicating, it’s usually because the message would land badly. Something’s clearly being set up behind the scenes, and employees are the ones being left in the dark yet again.

It’s been quiet today. The the axe fall on the Southeast ADs? And before somebody says it, my stupidvisor doesn’t know!

How long to get lump sum? I sent weeks a. Go and have not heard back.

Any new rumors or anything that’s going on with RICOH? I am a long time employee and there’s never been such silence, slow product releases, and lack of senior management interaction.

Just like at Nutanix, all quiet from leadership. Boombox pumpin; up too loud!

Usually around second week of February from experience
Everything is being kept tight lipped tho.

Silence is all we hear. Org changes all over. What’s happening?

They must still be secretly working on stuff behind the curtain

I know it’s easy to point fingers when things are not going well but where was our fearless leader 2025?

While the ship was sinking in 2025, he was no where to be found.

From the start, he took care of all his friends regardless of whether they had the experience or not to work the position.

This is the same guy who told us nothing would change when we were transitioned over to CUSA other than our email. He said it would be a good move for the company to help align support. Can anyone still employed at Canon USA (formerly CSA) say things have improved with the transition?

When he felt intimidated, he created useless buffers by promoting his old friends from Chicago. When he felt people were pushing him out he turned up the heat and forced them out.

Anyone could have run this company during the good times. It’s the tough times that show who the true leaders are. It’s safe to say our leader played and hide and go seek for this entire year. Maybe someone should tell him the game is over and it’s time to leave Melville and buy a one way ticket back to Chicago.

Good luck Mason, it’s safe to say you inherited a mess at the hands of your colleague.

I was hoping that whatever happens, it would be done in one day so we can move on. But with how little info we're getting and how slowly things are developing, it seems this will be a week-long affair, at least. I'm not looking forward to all the stress and anxiety one bit.

Whenever leadership goes quiet, we all know something’s brewing. And it's been very quiet lately.

hink it’s time someone asks the real questions that so many of us on the Medicare/Medicaid Member Services and Provider Services side of UnitedHealth Group are afraid to say out loud.

What is actually going on?
How much longer will any of us have jobs here in the United States?
Why can’t leadership just be transparent with us about the future instead of leaving entire teams in a constant state of uncertainty?

Every day we hear rumors, see teams shrinking, and watch responsibilities shift with no clear explanation. Many of us have built years of our lives around this company, serving members and providers with everything we have. We deserve honesty. We deserve communication. We deserve clarity about what direction this organization is taking and what it means for the people who keep it running.

How many of us are even left in the U.S. doing this work?
And why is it so hard to get straightforward information?

We’re not asking for miracles—just truthful communication and respect for the workforce that shows up every day despite the stress, fear, and unanswered questions.

UnitedHealth Group, we need answers.
We deserve transparency.
And we deserve better than silence.

Where is our CHRO when we need her tone deaf and inauthentic posts the most? Culture OS was bragged about and now she’s MIA during the most consequential time in decades? Maybe she’s mad she didn’t get a $4M retention bonus on the backs of thousands of lives ruined like her best buddies. Tough to say, but I am confident AI will guide her in whatever post she does to address us all eventually. And the spineless leadership will all like and repost it.

Has anyone actually heard from leadership (your boss, VPs, Presidents, etc) about the VoE survey at all?

They published a high-level review of the results and promised to talk about it with us, and here we are months later without a single word being said.

Has anyone heard anything about any layoffs? Seems pretty quiet right now but reading about a lot of companies laying off

I'm in corporate out of Basking Ridge. The place has been a ghost town. My boss and teammates have all been distant. I am seeing meetings cancelled left and right.

Serious question. When will the "new normal" start for those that make the first cut?

No company wide communications from Dan since he announced the layoffs 3 weeks ago… Do we think that he’ll do a webcast or something tomorrow? Or Friday? I’d love to see what he has to say about all this.

I tried to call ML several days today, because he told us to call him if we have any suggestions for the company.

For every and each time, I was directed to a voice mail box, and then was told the mail box was full. I’m not sure how is it possible for us to give any feedback regarding the company?

Please do not delete for the sake of this company. Your sincere dispersant.

Hard to believe it’s this tight lipped. It’s like we’re a boat heading to sea. On the horizon we see the big storm bubbling and everyone on the boat is just paddling straight in. Get ready for the waves I guess. Hopefully we actually learn something tomorrow. I find it difficult to believe there’s not one member of leadership that knows what’s going on.

They’re here for the company, not for us.

does inside sales have anything to be worried about. It’s been crickets here and no one is saying anything!!

This whole process was never going to be easy, but it could’ve been so much better if leadership had been upfront from the start. Instead, we’re left to guess and speculate because no one at the top wants to say anything concrete. A little honesty and communication would make a world of difference right now.

We used to see people in Basking Ridge on here with updates of leaders or teams that they saw impacted. This time its quiet.

Anyone else stopped receiving as much email traffic, mtg invites or tasks from your mgr?

I believe it only impacts who has made good $ . not the real workforce.

I know for a fact some layoffs have already happened. Why isn’t anyone coming on here and giving details?

Is this the calm before the storm?

If we didn't get an invite for the meeting, does that mean we're safe?

Is there 1000ish people in this 9am meeting? Could there be a round 2 today? Still dead silent over where I am.

Lots of speculation lately. Haven’t heard sh-t

What are the chances that if earnings don’t go well on Wednesday, they won’t do the standard all-hands call (like the cowards didn’t in Q2).

I guess It’s too hard to fellate each other on stage when your incompetence is laid out in black and white for all to see.

Have not seen or heard anything on this here? No one commenting, Detroit media silent...as usual.

All still quiet where I’m at.
