Anyone else feeling the pressure at CenterPoint?

Just checking in to see if anyone else is feeling a bit of unease at CenterPoint. No concrete news, but there's a definite undercurrent of 'something's up'. Been hearing a lot more chatter about 'streamlining' and 'optimizing' in internal comms, which usually translates to headcount reviews down the line, even if nothing is explicitly stated. Performance reviews seemed a bit harsher this cycle too. Is it just me, or are others in different divisions noticing a shift in how things are being managed? Any departments hiring freeze rumors or budget cuts making their way around? Trying to get a sense of the broader picture here. Appreciate any honest takes, even if it's just gut feelings.

I've noticed the same vibe. The 'optimizing' language definitely raises an eyebrow. It's like they're prepping for something, but nobody's saying what. Performance reviews felt more scrutinized this time around, for sure. It's hard to tell if it's sector-wide belt-tightening or something specific to us, but the unease is definitely shared. Trying to stay focused on my work, but it's tough with the uncertainty hanging in the air.
