Yeah, I've definitely noticed some similar things on my end. It's not just travel; we're also seeing delays in approving new software and a general slowdown in new project kickoffs. It's making it harder to get things done efficiently, and honestly, it's creating a bit of anxiety about what's coming next. Feels like we're all just waiting for an announcement.
Interesting you bring this up. We haven't had explicit 'budget cut' announcements, but the impact is clear. Hiring freezes are in effect, and budgets for training and development have been slashed. It's definitely a different atmosphere compared to last year. I'm hoping it's a temporary phase, but the silence from leadership is a bit concerning.
