Corning (GLW) - Morale Seems Low, What's the Vibe?

Hey folks, been at GLW for a few years now, primarily in one of the R&D divisions. Lately, the general mood feels... off. There's a lot of quiet chatter, more people seem stressed, and frankly, it feels like things are tightening up. Budgets seem smaller, travel is getting scrutinized more than usual, and there's a general sense of 'wait and see' that's palpable. I haven't heard any concrete layoff news, and my direct team hasn't been impacted, but the underlying anxiety is definitely there. Is anyone else picking up on this? Is it just my department, or is this a broader company trend? Wondering if there's any insight from other parts of Corning about what might be driving this feeling. Share your experiences if you're comfortable.

I've been hearing similar sentiments from friends at GLW in different departments. The general economic climate is undoubtedly a factor, and many companies are pulling back. It's understandable that R&D, which can sometimes be seen as a discretionary spend during leaner times, might feel the pinch more acutely. The lack of concrete news but the pervasive sense of unease is definitely a tough combination to navigate. Hope things stabilize soon for everyone there.
