You need to understand about the business of companies doing layoff. Meta shares down by 75% in last 1 year. Twitter became private. Similar with staffing companies like PS and EPAM who lost a lot of projects..
Now google UHG financial report and stock price trend in last 5 years. You will get your answer

Thanks 😊 This is such a relief ☺️

Not sure in US, but no layoffs or any such thing in India. Infact saw a LinkedIn post where Optum recruiter's are asking to send profile of those who are paid off

For your job security and WLB wise it is very good company and also there is no bench concept in optum...

UHG has nothing to do with OPTUM , its funny how people relate UHG business with optums performance and stats. Nowhere in your internal business financial report(circulated via email every quarter) you'd see UHG business number. Optum is UHG's captive and it doesn't just handles UHG's project it has many other outsourcing clients as well. So to answer your question rampdown downsizing would merely only depend on the project you've been assigned to.

Your variable pay would also depend on the business that Optum has done not on UHG's growth/business numbers. So everyone out there please don't blindly follow what HR's feed you do your own research

I was fired last month after a short time at the company. I knew things weren't going well- it was a terrible culture fit & I was also planning my exit strategy. They wouldn't give me specific reasons other than to vaguely say it was performance related. I agree I made a few dumb mistakes (none of any dire consequence) but what kills me is that I tried really hard. I don't want to change careers but I have a deep seeded fear that no matter how hard I try, I will never be a "good attorney".

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.

Anyone here familiar with the hiring process of KPMG consulting in Van? Had a partner interview on Nov 21, thought the feedback was positive but haven't heard back yet (no rejection/offer). Is it something normal or the interview just didn't go as well as I thought?

It's an experienced hire for an SC role. I saw the posting is still open atm, and my guess is that the recruiting team is comparing candidates since competition is higher due to recent layoffs.

Thanks in advance!

CCTC including all benefits is 16.57 with 8.3 YOE, primarily focused on Manual Testing.
Is it worth looking for another opportunity?
