Is anyone actually safe at KP anymore?

I've been watching the same patterns in my department for months. That constant drip-feed of layoffs is definitely a calculated move to keep the news cycle quiet while slowly dismantling teams. The 'resource optimization' buzzword is just a cover for poor planning and cost-cutting at the expense of our mental health. It’s impossible to feel secure when you see talented colleagues disappearing every few weeks. I’ve started updating my resume because this culture of fear is unsustainable, and it feels like the writing is on the wall for anyone who isn't in a mission-critical role.

Look, it’s not just you. The vibe across the whole organization has shifted from being a stable place to work into a high-stress environment where everyone is waiting for the other shoe to drop. It’s hard to focus on patient care or daily tasks when you are constantly wondering if you’re next on the list. I suggest stop listening to the corporate emails about restructuring and start preparing your own exit strategy. There’s no loyalty left in this system, so you have to look out for yourself and your own career longevity first.
