Layoff rumors at Booking? Anyone else hearing stuff?

Hey all, been seeing some chatter online (saw a snippet about EU relief applications and potential job cuts). I'm over here at Booking.com and things feel... uneasy. We haven't had any official word, but there's definitely a weird vibe. Some teams seem to be on lockdown with hiring, and a few folks have mentioned 'restructuring' in hushed tones. Just trying to get a sense if this is widespread or just my corner of the company. Anyone else in a similar boat or heard concrete rumors? Trying not to panic but it's hard not to when the online noise starts. Curious what the implications of that EU relief filing might be for us on the ground.

Yeah, I've heard similar whispers myself, though nothing concrete. It's unnerving when there's this much smoke without any fire, isn't it? I'm in a different division within the group, and while our team hasn't felt direct impacts yet, the general mood feels a bit tense. Management is being unusually quiet, which is never a good sign. Hopefully, it's just a lot of unfounded speculation, but it's hard not to worry when these kinds of rumors start circulating widely. Just trying to stay focused on the work.
