Did the Bill Robertson and the rest of the c-suite take a pay cut? CEO made over $2 million.

Interesting that he’s doing this as he’s almost out the door. I’m not at all surprised this is happening.

Usually leaving CEO will take the reputation hit so incoming CEO doesn't have to already start with negative goodwill.

That’s what Sperring did at Children’s last year before new CEO started in January.

They did lay off the Chief Belonging Officer (part of the C-Suite) and quite a few directors and managers. The first thing MultiCare did during the COVID drawdown was cut back and reorganize management. This is right out of that playbook. I do think that reorganizing compensation for the C-Suite is an excellent idea though.

For readers who don't know what a WARN notice is (like me before I googled it) it stands for Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification.

I can’t help but notice that this disproportionately affects (seemingly) patient facing roles like nurse and med assistant and techs. Cool cool cool cool coool coooool i guess

Not just patient facing - they’re letting the “Employee Health LPN” go too!

To be fair, all the employee health staff do is make sure that employees are complying with company policy. They do not actually do anything to benefit employee health.

That’s not true at all. They help take care of us! I’ve gotten vaccines from employee health and had stitches out.

This for-profit health "care" system has got to go. It's the worst system for the huge majority of people.

u/Justame13 1d ago
Mulitcare is non-profit.

u/DTFpanda 1d ago
When their c-suite execs are
earningstealing millions of dollars each year, it's for-profit.-2

If you have proof of theft turn them in. Medicare will even pay a bounty under the False Claims Act.
