Just saw the latest WARN notice for Davidson County. 46 people getting the boot effective January 31st. It’s always the same story—the email drops, the access gets cut, and the rest of us are left staring at our monitors wondering who’s next. I know management likes to preach 'strategic realignment' or whatever buzzword they’re pushing this quarter, but it’s getting hard to stay motivated when the headcount keeps shrinking. Does anyone know if this is concentrated in specific support roles or is it across the board? Seems like the silence from leadership is louder than ever. Personally, I’m done waiting for the other shoe to drop. Polishing the resume this weekend because clearly, nobody is safe regardless of performance reviews. Stay safe out there.

It’s honestly becoming the standard operating procedure at Cummins lately. You see the meeting invites pop up on Friday afternoons and you already know what’s coming. The constant talk about efficiency is just a thin veil for cutting costs at the expense of the people who actually keep the lights on. I’ve been looking at the internal postings, and it feels like the instability is spreading across almost every department. At this point, I’m just trying to keep my head down and finish my projects while I polish my resume on the side. Don't wait for them to decide your future for you.

I’ve heard whispers that this round is hitting the technical support and engineering design teams pretty hard. It’s frustrating because they keep pushing us to hit these aggressive development targets while simultaneously stripping away the resources and staff needed to actually execute them. The leadership team is so disconnected from the shop floor that they don’t realize how demoralizing this constant uncertainty is. If you’re in a role that’s remotely redundant, you’re right to be nervous. Everyone I know is already quietly checking in with recruiters. It’s just not worth the stress anymore.
