Definitely feeling some shifts since the split. My team's been tasked with consolidating a lot of redundant systems, which is a huge undertaking. While it's pitched as a 'streamlining' effort, it feels like a lot of busywork designed to keep people occupied. The lack of clear communication on long-term strategy is unsettling. Hoping it's just post-divorce growing pains, but the silence is deafening.
I'm in a similar boat. The "hum" you're talking about is palpable. We had a recent all-hands where the focus was heavily on 'synergies' and 'optimization,' which is corporate speak for cost-cutting, in my book. Saw a few project scopes get significantly trimmed last week. It’s probably standard procedure after a spin-off, but it does make you wonder about the stability of your role and the company's direction.
