Yeah, I've been feeling it too. Project scopes seem to be shrinking, and there's a definite slowdown in new proposal activity. Leadership's been pretty tight-lipped, which just amplifies the anxiety. It's not just anecdotal either; some internal metrics I've seen hint at a dip in order intake. Hope it's just a seasonal blip, but it feels like more.
Definitely noticing the same hesitation. Less urgency on existing projects and a noticeable lack of new 'big wins' being announced. My department's been told to 'optimize resource allocation,' which usually means some kind of headcount adjustment down the line. It’s a tough environment right now, makes you wonder what the next earnings call will bring.
