Anyone else's team affected by recent 'reorgs' at Brown-Forman?

Been at Brown-Forman for a while, and the past few months have felt like a constant state of flux. We've had a couple of 'restructurings' in my division, and while no one's explicitly said 'layoffs,' a few roles have definitely been absorbed or eliminated post-project. My manager's been really cagey about future headcount, just vague comments about 'optimizing our talent structure.' It feels like a slow bleed rather than a sudden event. Anyone else experiencing this kind of subtle shake-up? Trying to gauge if this is company-wide or just specific pockets. Any insights on what's driving this would be appreciated.

Yeah, I've heard similar rumblings from folks on the sales side. It feels like they're consolidating a lot of functions and pushing for more cross-functional responsibilities without necessarily increasing headcount. There's definitely an undercurrent of uncertainty, and the vague language about 'efficiency' doesn't do much to calm nerves. People are starting to polish up their resumes, just in case.

Totally. My department had a 'strategic realignment' last quarter. Some projects got shelved, and the teams involved were shuffled around. It's less about outright cuts and more about shifting priorities and roles. Management keeps talking about 'evolving with the market,' but it just feels like we're doing more with less, and nobody's quite sure what the endgame is. Definitely a strange vibe around here lately.
