Yeah, the vibe feels off lately. 'Streamlining' and 'optimizing' are definitely buzzwords I'm hearing a lot more around my department, which is usually pretty insulated. It's hard not to get a bit anxious when that kind of language starts popping up. Feels like more than just the usual seasonal slowdown, for sure.
I'm in one of those 'back-office tech roles' and can confirm the unease. We've been tasked with some 'efficiency reviews' that feel a bit... intense. It's hard to shake the feeling that something's brewing, especially with the increased focus on resource allocation. Definitely keeping my eyes and ears open.
