I've definitely noticed a shift too. It's not just about 'fiscal responsibility' anymore, it feels like a full-on tightening of the belt. Even simple supply requests are taking forever to get signed off on. I'm wondering if it's a company-wide thing or specific to certain departments. The emphasis on caution is palpable, and honestly, it's making things a bit frustrating when you're trying to get work done efficiently. Hopefully, it's a temporary measure.
Same here. The 'fiscal responsibility' message is loud and clear, but the practical impact is slowing everything down. It feels like we're walking on eggshells when it comes to any kind of discretionary spending. I've had a couple of minor training requests get pushed back because they 'aren't a priority right now.' It's definitely creating a more cautious atmosphere across the board. Curious to see if leadership clarifies the situation soon.
