Interesting post. I haven't heard anything concrete either, but I've definitely felt a shift in the last quarter. My team's been asked to scrutinize all new project proposals more rigorously, and there's been more emphasis on efficiency and cost savings across the board. It could just be standard end-of-year planning, but the intensity feels a little higher than usual. Curious to see if this continues or if it's just a temporary adjustment.
I work in a different division and haven't personally noticed any hiring freezes or project cuts, but the general sentiment is definitely one of cautious optimism. We're still seeing significant investment in key research areas, which is encouraging. Perhaps the 'slowdown' is more localized to specific departments or functions rather than a company-wide issue. The market's always dynamic, and Lilly is likely just navigating those shifts strategically.
