Medtronic: Anyone else feeling the 'wait and see' vibe?

Been at Medtronic for a few years now, and lately things just feel... off. It's not one specific thing, more of a general atmosphere. My team's been pretty quiet on new project kick-offs, and there's been a lot of 'circle back later' on strategic planning discussions. It's like everyone's just holding their breath, waiting for some announcement or direction. Performance reviews felt a bit more generic this year too, less about growth and more about 'meeting expectations.' I've seen similar murmurs on other teams, though people are hesitant to talk openly. Just wondering if anyone else is picking up on this, or if I'm just overthinking it. Trying to stay positive and focus on my current work, but the uncertainty is definitely a bit of a drain.

I've been feeling that too. It's definitely a shift from what I remember a couple of years ago. There's a sense of caution, for sure, and it makes you wonder what's on the horizon. The lack of clear direction on new initiatives is noticeable, and the performance review comments definitely felt less focused on individual development and more on just maintaining the status quo. It's tough to stay motivated when the path forward feels so uncertain.
