Aetna Makes Second Round of Layoffs
By victor | Dated: 02-04-2010
Aetna, which cut 625 jobs in November, has cut the same number in a second round of layoffs. Citing the economy, the health insurer cut more than 100 jobs in its home state of Connecticut and the rest were made around the country.“We didn’t get out of any business line or anything like that,” spokesman Fred Laberge told the Associated Press. “It’s sort of across different job functions and staff areas.”
Aetna employs about 35,000 people, most in the U.S. The latest cuts will reduce the staff by less than two percent.

What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
