Kellanova - Anyone else feeling the 'optimization' pressure?

Yeah, I'm hearing the same chatter. It feels like a familiar dance – cost-cutting disguised as progress. The 'streamlining' often translates to longer hours for those of us left doing the actual work. I've noticed a few familiar faces have disappeared quietly too. It's definitely creating an undercurrent of uncertainty, and frankly, a bit of resentment. Let's hope this 'optimization' actually leads to something tangible beyond just numbers on a spreadsheet, and doesn't just make everyone's job harder for the sake of it.

I can relate. The 'efficiency' push is real, and it often feels like a euphemism for doing more with less. It's understandable that people are on edge when projects are stalled and workloads increase without clear communication about the endgame. This constant state of 'optimization' can really wear people down and impact morale. It's a tough environment when you're constantly wondering if your role is secure or if you'll be the next one expected to absorb more duties.
