Anyone else seeing hiring freezes at CFI?

Noticed a couple of requisitions I was tracking for my team at Citizens have suddenly gone inactive or been pulled. When I asked my manager, they were super cagey and just said 'resource allocation review.' Sounds like a polite way of saying no new hires for a while, maybe even a freeze. Is anyone else experiencing this? Seems like a precursor to potential cost-cutting measures. It's not a full-blown layoff announcement, but the hiring freeze is definitely a red flag for me. Curious if this is company-wide or specific to certain divisions. Let me know if you're seeing similar signs or have any intel. Trying to gauge the overall health of things here.

Yeah, I've seen something similar. A few roles that were open for a while just disappeared from the careers page without any explanation. When I inquired, the response was vague, which definitely raises an eyebrow. It's concerning, especially if it's widespread. Makes you wonder about the company's direction and financial health when they suddenly pull back on hiring so abruptly. Hoping it's just a temporary adjustment, but the lack of transparency is unsettling.

Interesting you bring this up. I haven't heard anything official about a hiring freeze, but the silence is deafening. It does feel like things have slowed down considerably, and the usual chatter about new openings has died down. The 'resource allocation review' explanation sounds like corporate speak for 'we're tightening our belts.' It's always a bit nerve-wracking when the company gets quiet about growth and hiring. Keeping an eye on this situation.
