r/OPTUM

Hello parefer naman sa mga employee ng accion nakita ko hiring sila for non voice and welcome ang mga fresh grad huhuhu

I submitted a reimbursement/expense report, and it has already gone through the system and approved. It was extracted for payment on Monday, but it wasn't included in my paycheck. Are expenses considered supplemental pay or should I expect it in my next paycheck? This is the first time I've done this and my boss is away through the end of this week and if feels silly to ask their boss this question in their absence.

These days company didnt verify RELATION BACKGROUND there is a DIRECTOR (data analyst) name {SAURABH BHUSHAN }in OPTUM (HYDERABAD) WHO IS brother of (AYUSH SHUBHAM )WHO IS DATA ANALYST AT OPTUM HE HELPED HIM GET HIS JOB AT 2021 FEB AYUSH USED FAKE ADHAR CARD SO THAT ADDRESS WILL BE DIFFERENT IN REALITY THEY BOTH ARE COUSIN BROTHERS WHO LIVE IN SAME HOUSE IN RANCHI AND AYUSH SHUBHAM GET PROMOTION IN EVERY 2 YEARS BECAUSE OF HIS BROTHER
AND THIS DIRECTOR LEVEL SAURABH BHUSHANS {WIFE} IS ALSO THIER IN OPTUM HYDERABAD AS A( DATA SCIENTIST)
THESE 3 PEOPLE ARE JUST MAKING FOOL OUT THIS WHOLE ORANIZATION AND NO BODY TAKES ACTION AGAINST THEM

Hi. I got hired to start with Optum last month. I had no vacation planned and immediately transition into this role without a break in between to decompress. Training starts soon this coming week. How soon can I request a day of PTO to spend some time with my partner? I'm looking to take Sept 4 and take a trip outside the state.

Thanks

Hi folks, I received an offer from optum and they agreed to extend my DOJ to July 15th, and yet I haven't received the revised offer letter. After asking HR they are telling it is in the que since past 3weeks when will I receive the offer letter? My LWD is July 6th and I'm worried now.

Had a phone screen with a UHG recruiter in early June for a Financial Analyst role. Call went well, status updated to “Interview complete; under review” and then updated again a week later. It’s now been almost a month. No email provided for follow up, LinkedIn connection never approved and LinkedIn message ignored.

I get that big companies move slow but a simple “we went another direction” would go such a long way. Has anyone else experienced this with UHG/Optum? How long did it actually take before you heard back?

After about ten years of working remotely, I got RTO’ed and have been coming into the Optum HQ building regularly. Basically swiping my badge and hanging out for a bit then going back home to work the remainder of the day. I have no human interaction, as all my meetings are on Teams and I have no colleagues in MSP. Makes zero sense and I get ticked off every day.

Some observations:
I see LOTS of people headed toward the exit doors well before noon with backpacks, obviously heading home for the day.
I’m so tempted to ask security if they see people blatantly scanning their badge, then turn around and leave.
It’s so awkward sitting in a cube near people that you don’t know and they obviously don’t want to be there either.
If they’re looking for voluntary attrition, they may get it with me, I’m looking.
People drive like idiots in the parking ramps, slow it down people.
The cafeteria has a very strange vibe with person-less kiosks, and overpriced food.
Even with RTO, I only see about 20% of cubicles occupied.

Working remotely was the #1 benefit of working for Optum IMO. With no pay increase this year, lower 401K match, additional time and expense of RTO, I feel like I’m going backwards not forward. I thought I’d retire here, but now that’s unlikely due to a policy that makes absolutely zero sense. End of rant.

I m 2026 grad. I m looking for refferal I can share my resume and job id.

Question please. I was offered a position and I have started my on boarding, did the urine drug screen, etc. I’m realizing now the mistake I made was I left out a position I had for only a year on my résumé. Is this going to come back to bite me? Would that one thing lead to them resending the offer? Super nervous 😬

I’m in the Houston, Texas area. Yesterday, we were told to be at a meeting at 9:00 a.m. This morning, some of us made it on time, but there was a lot of confusion and commotion before I got there. People were panicking, saying things like, “What am I going to do? I’m going to lose my home. I’m going to be homeless.”

During the meeting, they disabled our mics and chat so we couldn’t communicate with each other. It became clear that the entire Peer Support team had been let go. We were told our positions had been eliminated.

We were informed we will receive 3 weeks of severance, and we are not expected to work for the next 2 weeks. Everything happened very suddenly, and everyone was in shock.

I have an interview coming up for AI/ML Engineer in Optum for grade 26. My expertise is mostly in RAG pipelines and chatbots/voicebots, etc. though I have done some classic ML projects. What kind of questions can I expect?

What level of DSA do they ask? Will I be asked System Design for SG26? How deep will they go in the projects?

Has anyone from Optum or anyone who interviewed can give some advice?

Hello.

Normal bang matagal talaga mag update ang mga TA for the result ng final interview? Tuesday night ako nag interview via teams then after that wala pa rin akong natatangap na email until now. Gets naman if hindi pasado or what pero sana naman nag bibigay manlang ng update.

I’m frustrated knowing that I can do a job, I have certifications for it, but I’m not looked at for a promotion. I’m trying to wait it out but it’s draining.

I read complaints people have regarding the Epic positions and to be honest, what they complain about is what I look forward to.

I keep trying to remind myself that when it’s for me, I’ll get it!!!

That’s my rant for today.

I just need to vent to the ladies out there with OptumRX.

Those of us at a certain age NEED our estrogen patches. I can’t believe how much we pay for coverage and yet I can’t get the prescription I need to keep my body working, Not to mention my mood pleasant. This is unacceptable and millions of women are impacted daily.

There would’ve been riots if little blue pills were never in stock.

Come on Optum, help us ladies out!

Hi, I was lead on by allina health when they offered a position two months ago and then delayed employment due to budget cuts. I patiently waited for a start date and I finally got one. The job was in business services, all I did was scan paper and fix mailing statuses all day, seemed chill. WRONG. I get chewed out from clicking out 5 mins before my end time which isn’t that deep and I manually had to change my time clock. Then it gets worse, they barely trained me, they showed me how to do these tasks once and then expected me to be perfect at them. Then like the passive aggressive mfs they are end up firing me because my “metrics” were bad and I wasn’t a good communicator. Mind you, my job was primarily away from my desk and I did all of the tasks I was supposed to complete. They called my staffing agency to fire me too, didn’t even have the guts to tell me in person, what a waste of my time. I hate allina health/optum, terrible organization. I hope they lose all the money in their lawsuit.

I’m considering a permanent position at Optum/UHC as a medical profee coder..I would love to know your experience..

im seeing alot of negative comments but not sure if it’s contract work, FTE or both.

thanks
