Anyone else hearing whispers about Booking Holdings?

Seeing some chatter online and hearing it through the grapevine about potential restructuring/layoffs at Booking Holdings. Nothing concrete, just the usual speculation that seems to ramp up this time of year, especially with the industry still finding its footing. It's always nerve-wracking when you're part of a big company, and the travel sector has seen its share of ups and downs lately. I'm trying not to panic, but it's hard not to think about it. Has anyone on here seen any internal memos or heard anything more specific from their teams? Or is this just the typical 'what if' cycle? Curious to hear if others are feeling the same unease or if it's just me overthinking things. Trying to stay focused on the work, but the uncertainty is a killer.

Yeah, I've picked up on some of that talk too. It's definitely the season for industry speculation, and travel is always a bit of a rollercoaster. I haven't seen anything official, but the rumor mill seems pretty active. Hoping it's just the usual year-end noise, but can't help but keep an eye out for any real news. It's understandable that people are a bit anxious given the current economic climate and how things have been for the travel sector.

Heard similar things from a few people in the industry. It's tough to gauge how much is just smoke and mirrors versus actual plans. Big companies like Booking Holdings often go through adjustments, especially after periods of rapid growth or uncertainty. I'm trying to focus on my work and not get too caught up in the whispers, but it's hard to ignore when the chatter is this persistent. Let's hope for clarity soon.
