Anyone else seeing project delays and scope cuts?

Hey everyone, posting anonymously here. Been at LM for a few years now, and things have felt...off lately. Usually, we're pushing forward on multiple fronts, but for the last couple of months, it feels like projects are getting put on hold, budgets are being squeezed, and scopes are being reduced left and right. My manager is cagey when I ask, just saying 'resource allocation' and 'strategic realignment'. It's making it hard to plan, and frankly, a bit unsettling. Is anyone else experiencing this on their teams or programs? Feels like a precursor to something bigger, but there's no official word, no all-hands about it, nothing. Just this weird, slow tightening. Wondering if it's specific to my division or a company-wide thing. Trying not to panic, but it's hard to ignore the vibes.

Yeah, I've definitely noticed something similar. It's not just you. The 'strategic realignment' talk has been frequent, and it feels like a euphemism for things slowing down or getting cut. It's frustrating when you're trying to get work done and keep hitting these invisible walls. Makes you wonder what the long-term plan really is when the day-to-day feels so uncertain. Hopefully, it's a temporary thing and things pick back up soon.
