Fortinet - Any whispers about Q4 hiring freeze or budget cuts?
3E
0x3ef5…7b77Hey everyone, been seeing a lot of chatter on other company forums about potential hiring freezes and tighter budgets heading into the end of the year, especially in tech. Wanted to see if anyone at Fortinet is hearing anything similar internally. I'm not talking about official announcements, but more the usual "grapevine" stuff – less emphasis on new projects, managers being cagey about headcount, maybe some internal transfers being put on hold? My team's been pretty quiet lately, and usually around this time, we'd be gearing up for some new initiatives or expansions. Feels a bit stagnant, which is unusual. Anyone else getting a similar vibe? Curious if it's just my department or a broader trend. Trying to get a read on the general sentiment before Q4 really kicks off. Any anecdotal evidence or observations would be appreciated.
