Is anyone else feeling the heat lately?

Ever since the news about the Chino office layoffs came out, the vibe on my team has been completely off. Management keeps telling us it's just 'restructuring' and not to worry, but we’ve heard that line before. I’ve been with Humana for a few years now and it feels like the goalposts for performance are constantly moving. Every time we have an all-hands meeting, I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop. Is anyone else getting the feeling that another round is coming, or am I just being paranoid? It’s hard to stay motivated when you’re constantly checking your calendar for potential surprise meetings.

I’m in the same boat. It feels like every time we turn around, the company is pivoting again. The constant talk about 'efficiency' and 'strategic alignment' has become corporate speak for cutting costs at the expense of the people doing the actual work. It’s impossible to feel secure when you see colleagues you’ve worked with for years getting pushed out. Everyone is on edge, and honestly, the lack of transparency from leadership is what makes the anxiety so much worse. You aren't being paranoid; it's just the reality of the current culture.

Honestly, I’ve stopped trying to read the tea leaves. I decided a few months ago that I’m just going to focus on my own skills and keep my resume updated. Humana used to feel like a place where you could build a career, but now it feels like a temp gig where you're constantly waiting for the axe to fall. If you're stressed, it’s probably a sign that you should start looking for an exit strategy just in case. It is better to be prepared and stay than to be caught off guard when the next announcement hits.
