Hey everyone, been with CAT for a few years now and things feel... quiet lately. Not in a good way. Seeing a lot of chatter online about broader industry trends, and while we're usually pretty insulated with infrastructure spending, I'm starting to get a bit antsy. Haven't heard anything concrete internally, no official announcements or anything. But you know how it is, sometimes you hear things through the grapevine, or notice subtle shifts in project priorities or hiring freezes. Is anyone else picking up on anything? Any hints from management in town halls, or even just a general feeling in your department? Just trying to gauge the temperature before things potentially get hairy. Would appreciate any insights, even if it's just speculation. Trying not to panic, but a little heads-up would be nice.

Been in the industry a while, and it's true, you can sometimes feel shifts before they're announced. Focus on your performance and skills, those are always valuable assets regardless of company direction. Keep your resume updated and network, just in case.

Totally get the feeling. It's wise to stay aware of what's happening around you, even if nothing is official yet. Sometimes the market just gets a bit slow, and that can feel unsettling. Hopefully, it's just a temporary lull and things pick back up soon for everyone.
