I spent 28 dedicated years of my life as a Blue Cross employee in Kentucky. When Wellpoint (California's plan) merged with our company, older employees, with long unblemished careers, started being fired for "lack of performance." It was no accident that the people who were doing the 'firing' were out of state managers. I called Wellpoint out by emailing the CEO and questioning the company's integrity. Six weeks later I was fired. Within a week I sued for age discrimination and retaliation. Almost 5 years in now, they have stalled in every way possible. How dare a gal from Kentucky pick a fight with the 'Giant'! Their time is running out.
