Eastman Chemical - Is the sky falling or is it just me?

Hey everyone. Been at Eastman for a few years now, in the specialty division. Lately, there's been a lot of quiet chatter, not official announcements or anything, but you can feel it. Project timelines are being scrutinized more, travel budgets are tighter than ever, and some teams are definitely leaner than they were even six months ago. I haven't heard of any actual layoffs, but the vibe is definitely... uneasy. Makes you wonder what's going on behind closed doors. Anyone else picking up on this? Or am I just being paranoid? Trying to get a pulse on the situation without causing unnecessary panic. Curious to hear if others are seeing similar signs or if things feel stable in their departments.

Yeah, I've definitely felt that shift too. It's not just you. The scrutiny on expenses and efficiency seems to be ratcheting up across the board. While there haven't been any big public pronouncements, the subtle changes in how projects are managed and resources are allocated are noticeable. It creates a certain anxiety when you can't quite pinpoint the cause, but you can feel the tightening reins. Hopefully, it's just a strategic adjustment rather than something more concerning.
