Emerson Industrials: Anyone else noticing increased workload/stress?

Hey folks, been with Emerson Industrials for a few years now and lately, it feels like things are ramping up in a way that's... not sustainable. My team is swamped, deadlines seem tighter, and there's a general air of 'do more with less' that's getting to me. I haven't heard any official word about layoffs, and my direct manager is being super cagey, just saying we need to 'focus on efficiency.' But the constant pressure and the fact that we're seemingly being asked to achieve more with fewer resources is making me wonder if this is a precursor to something bigger. Are others experiencing this? Is it just my department or a broader trend at Emerson Industrials? Trying to gauge if I should be updating the resume, or if this is just the normal churn of the industry. Any insights would be appreciated.

Yeah, I've definitely felt that crunch. It seems like projects are being piled on without a corresponding increase in resources. That 'efficiency' talk feels like a euphemism for working harder without more support. It's tough when you feel like you're constantly running on fumes and the end isn't in sight. Hope things ease up for you and your team soon.

I hear you. The 'do more with less' mantra is alive and well here too. It creates a stressful environment where quality can start to slip because everyone's stretched so thin. The lack of clear communication doesn't help either; it just breeds anxiety about what's really going on. Management really needs to address these workload issues before burnout becomes widespread.
