Anyone else seeing budget cuts or hiring freezes without an official announcement?

Hey all, been at AbbVie for a few years now, and lately things feel… strange. We haven't had any official word about layoffs, but there's a definite chill in the air. My team's travel budget got slashed overnight, and a few open requisitions for critical roles have just gone dark. It feels like a hiring freeze, but no one is saying it out loud. Managers are being super cagey when asked about hiring plans. Is anyone else experiencing this quiet tightening of the purse strings? It's making it hard to plan and, honestly, a bit unsettling. Wondering if this is an ABBV-wide thing or just specific to certain divisions. Let me know if you're seeing similar signals.

Yeah, I've been picking up on similar vibes over here too. It's definitely not just you. My department's been told to hold off on any non-essential spending, and a few projects we thought were greenlit have suddenly been put on indefinite pause. It's created a lot of uncertainty, and honestly, the lack of clear communication is making people nervous. Everyone's trying to read between the lines, but it's tough when leadership is staying so tight-lipped about the overall picture. Hoping for some clarity soon.
