Anyone else think the redeployments are just a way to postpone layoffs til after the first of the year? Reps are being moved to UHC member services to handle calls about UHC MC during open enrollment.

... I got laid off on 05.04.23 and I couldn't be happier! Now I just wait for my lawsuit to settle. The work environment at Optum is full of harassment, and discrimination!

Mass layoffs were expected last week and today. However, as far as I know, nothing has happened. I believe that if you were to guess that there would be a layoff every Thursday, you might be right once in a while. There's a lot of fear-mongering... — read more 

They are changing the attendance policy, so they can fire more people.

Any one heard the same or have information?

Shame on United Healthcare's PBM OptumRx who has had a 1.5 star rating for many years now and with some of the same management team working there for years.
