It depends on the role and department. Both UHC and Optum tend to go in cycles with re-orgs and layoffs.

In 5 years I went thru 6 layoffs.

I would go back to Optum in a heartbeat for the right role and right money. It’s a great place to work, unless you get a bad VP but even then it’s pretty awesome.

I haven’t seen frequent layoffs, although if it’s an acquisition there’s always some of that. I have seen a ton of reorgs, it’s been every 6-12 months, as leaders leave (some at will, some not), strategy pivots, structure changes etc.
