Cintas: Morale taking a hit lately?

Just wanted to vent a bit. The atmosphere at Cintas feels… off. People seem more anxious, and there’s less collaboration than usual. It feels like everyone is just focused on their own tasks and keeping their heads down. I've noticed a definite increase in the workload and a feeling that we're being asked to do more with less. Performance metrics seem tighter, and there's less room for error. It's creating a lot of stress, and I'm seeing good people looking pretty burnt out. Anyone else feeling this dip in morale? Is it just my location, or is this a broader trend across Cintas? Trying to understand if this is temporary or the new normal. It’s hard to stay motivated when the environment feels so pressured and uncertain.

I've definitely noticed a shift too. It feels like the pressure's on more than ever, and you can sense the underlying tension. It's tough when the focus seems to be solely on hitting numbers and efficiency, sometimes at the expense of teamwork and a positive environment. Hoping things ease up soon, or at least that management addresses the concerns being felt across the board.

Totally get what you're saying. The 'do more with less' mantra seems to be in full effect. It's hard to maintain motivation and feel like a valued part of the team when you're constantly feeling the squeeze. I've seen a similar decline in morale and a more siloed approach to work. It makes coming in each day a lot less enjoyable, that's for sure.
