MGM Resorts - Any word on Q3/Q4 projections impacting headcount?

Hey everyone, been with MGM for a few years now in the corporate side. Lately, it feels like there's a bit of an undercurrent of uncertainty. No official announcements or anything, but my department's been unusually quiet on new projects, and I've heard whispers about budget reviews happening across several divisions. My manager is being pretty tight-lipped, which isn't typical for them. Just wondering if anyone else is picking up on similar vibes, maybe in different departments or properties? Are teams being asked to be more lean, or are there any subtle signs of shifts in management's outlook on future staffing needs? Trying to get a sense of the broader picture beyond my immediate team. Curious to hear what others are seeing or hearing, especially if you're in operational roles or directly client-facing.

I'm in operations at one of the Strip properties and definitely feel the shift. We've seen some natural attrition lately, and hiring freezes seem to be the unofficial word, at least for non-essential roles. Budgets are definitely being scrutinized more than usual, and while nothing concrete has been said about layoffs, the general atmosphere is one of caution. It's hard to shake the feeling that cost-saving measures are being prioritized.

Corporate here too, and yeah, the quiet is loud. Projects that were greenlit a few months ago are now in limbo, and there's a noticeable hesitation to commit to anything new without multiple layers of approval. It's not just whispers anymore; there's a palpable sense that we're in a holding pattern. Management seems to be managing expectations very carefully, which usually means something is brewing on the horizon.
