Ecolab - Layoff rumors or just market jitters?

Been seeing a lot of talk on other platforms about potential job cuts across the chemical industry, and it's got me thinking about Ecolab. We haven't had any official news, and Q3 earnings weren't a complete disaster, but the economic climate feels shaky. Some project managers have been pulled from smaller initiatives, and there's been a noticeable slowdown in new hires being approved. Is anyone else picking up on this? Or is this just the usual pre-holiday season anxiety combined with general economic uncertainty? I'm trying to figure out if I should be updating my resume 'just in case' or if it's business as usual. Anyone have any 'insider' info, even speculative, about where we might be heading? Trying to make sense of the signals without jumping to conclusions.

I've been hearing whispers too, but haven't seen anything concrete on the ground at my site. We did have some project reprioritization, which could be interpreted in a few ways, but my team's workload hasn't changed. Maybe it's localized to certain departments or regions? It's hard to tell with just anecdotal evidence floating around. I'm keeping an eye on official communications, but so far, it's just speculation. The hiring freeze on certain roles is definitely real though.
