Lincoln National - what's the deal with Q4 performance expectations?

Seriously, what's going on with the internal comms around Q4 targets at Lincoln? Feels like we're being set up for failure or something. The numbers being thrown around seem incredibly aggressive given the current market conditions and the internal restructuring that's been happening. I'm in [mention a general department like 'underwriting' or 'claims'] and our team is already stretched thin. Now they're talking about needing to 'exceed expectations' by a significant margin. It's making me nervous about potential performance reviews leading to… well, you know. Is this just standard end-of-year pressure, or does it feel more pointed this time? Anyone else in a similar boat or have insights into the broader company strategy that might explain this push? It's definitely adding to the general anxiety around here.
