Humana Overlords Enrich Themselves

Strange Tony,

Christmas and the New Year saw Humana board members and senior executives enriching themselves with stock awards.  While bounty overflowed at the king's table nothing trickled down to my hospice coworkers.  Benefits deteriorated significantly in the health insurance arena.  The multi-year pattern of nonexistent pay raises continued as overlords lathered themselves with stock options.

Two paid holidays disappeared for 2019 and time-and-a-half holiday pay turned into regular pay.  I'm not sure where executives will put the riches taken from employee pockets.

Humana CEO Bruce Broussard may have spent it in Davos, Switzerland where a hamburger costs $75.  The cost of hamburger meals for Broussard's entourage likely exceeds the company's 401k match for the average Kindred at Home employee. 

Broussard is smart enough to do the math.  What will smart Kindred Hospice employees do under unbalanced, incompetent, mendacious management? KAH executives are focused solely on doing our new owners' bidding.  They want more.  I'm not sure there's anything left to extract from staff.
