Hey everyone, just wanted to see if anyone else at CAT is noticing a definite slowdown in project kickoffs or even general team activity lately? My department has been eerily quiet for the past few weeks, which is unusual for this time of year. Usually, we're gearing up for end-of-year pushes, but it feels like things are just… paused. I haven't heard any official word about layoffs, and honestly, my manager is being super cagey about future projects. It's making me a little anxious, especially with all the chatter about other industries cutting back. Just trying to gauge the temperature here. Is anyone else experiencing this? Or am I just overthinking a temporary lull?

Yeah, I'm feeling it too. My team's workload has definitely dipped, and we're usually swamped this time of year. There's a lot of speculation floating around, but nothing concrete. It's unsettling when you're not sure what's coming next. I'm hoping it's just a temporary lull before the next big wave of projects, but the quiet is definitely noticeable. Hope your situation improves soon and you get some clarity from management.
