Hey everyone, been seeing some chatter on Glassdoor and other sites about a potential hiring freeze at Lam. Not seeing any official announcements, and my manager is being super cagey. Just wondering if anyone else is picking up on this vibe, or if it's just paranoia? My team's been pretty stable, but we've had a couple of reqs stalled for weeks now, which isn't typical. Workload is still heavy, which is what makes it weird. Are they trying to save cash or is something else going on in the background? Curious to hear if anyone has more direct info or is in a similar boat. Trying not to panic but also want to be prepared if things are shifting.

Yeah, I've heard similar rumblings through the grapevine too. It's definitely strange to have stalled requisitions when the workload hasn't eased up at all. It makes you wonder what the long-term strategy is if they're holding back on bringing in new talent. Hopefully, it's just a temporary belt-tightening measure and not indicative of bigger issues down the line. Keeping an eye on this for sure.
