Is now the time to polish the resume?

0x22d3…b86aOkay, so this is more of a 'hypothetical' question, but honestly, it's weighing on my mind. We're all aware that the industry, even utilities, isn't immune to economic pressures. While there haven't been any official layoff announcements at Con Edison, the 'vibe' feels a bit off.
I've noticed a few things: increased talk about efficiency, some reorganizations happening behind the scenes, and a general tightening of budgets on certain initiatives. It's not panic mode by any stretch, but it's enough to make me think about my own preparedness.
For those who have been through layoffs before, either here or elsewhere, what are the subtle signs you look for? When does 'business as usual' start to feel like a precursor to something bigger? I'm not looking for gossip, but more for experienced perspectives on how to navigate these uncertain times. Should I be proactively updating my LinkedIn and resume, or is this just the standard cyclical nature of a large company?
Looking forward to any insights you might have. Don't want to be caught off guard if things do shift.
