Potential for layoffs at Duke? What's the mood?

Curious to hear from folks at Duke Energy. Things feel a little uncertain right now. Projects seem to be facing more scrutiny, and there's been some talk about budget cuts or reallocations. No official word on layoffs, which is good, but the general atmosphere feels a bit tense. Management is being cagey when asked direct questions. Anyone else getting this impression? Are specific divisions feeling more pressure than others? Trying to gauge the general sentiment and see if this is a widespread feeling or just my team/location. Trying to stay optimistic but it's hard when you see these kinds of shifts. What's the general feeling out there?

Definitely feeling the same vibe. It's like a low hum of anxiety in the background. Been hearing whispers about restructuring in some departments, which always makes you wonder what comes next. Hoping it's just standard business optimization, but it's hard not to worry when you see projects getting shelved or budgets tightened. Management's silence isn't helping either. Feels like we're all just waiting for something to happen.

Yeah, the uncertainty is palpable. My team hasn't seen any direct impact yet, but the overall mood is definitely subdued. People are more cautious about speaking up or taking risks, and there's a lot of second-guessing happening. Management needs to be more transparent; this kind of speculation breeds fear and can really hurt morale, even if nothing major comes of it. Let's hope for clarity soon.
