I've definitely felt a shift in my area too. We haven't had outright layoffs, but the increased scrutiny on budgets and a freeze on non-essential travel definitely makes you wonder. People are being more cautious with spending and project approvals seem to be taking longer. It's creating a bit of an anxious atmosphere where everyone's just trying to keep their heads down and prove their value.
Heard similar rumblings from my side of the fence. While my team is secure for now, there's definitely a palpable sense of unease. Projects that were greenlit are suddenly under review, and there's a lot of talk about 'streamlining operations.' It feels like management is assessing every single line item, and it’s making people nervous about future job security, even without official word.
