Just saw the news about another ~63 people gone as of May 31st. This feels like a regular occurrence lately. It's getting hard to feel secure here, honestly. I keep wondering if my department will be next or if this is just a constant optimization process. Anyone else feeling this level of uncertainty? It's not just the fear of losing your job, but the impact on workload and team morale when people leave. Feels like we're expected to just absorb everything. Wondering what the long-term strategy is behind these frequent, smaller layoffs instead of one big one. Seems like it just keeps people on edge.

It's definitely unsettling to see these ongoing workforce adjustments. The constant uncertainty really impacts morale and makes it hard to plan, both personally and professionally. You start to wonder about the bigger picture and where the company is headed if this is the new normal. Hoping for some clarity soon, but it's tough to remain optimistic when layoffs seem to be a recurring theme.
