Is the culture dying at the home office?

Been reading through the threads about the latest layoffs in WI and honestly, it’s depressing. I wasn’t impacted this time around, but I feel like I’m constantly looking over my shoulder. It feels like every six months there’s a new 'strategic shift' or 'efficiency exercise.' How are we supposed to build anything meaningful when half the team is constantly worried about their headcount being re-evaluated? Management keeps preaching about the 'Molson Coors way' and our legacy, but when you see 90 people get walked out, that company culture talk just sounds like noise. I’m starting to wonder if the long-term play here is just to cut costs until the brand is a shell of itself. For those of you still here, are you actually staying, or are you quietly looking for an exit strategy? I feel like the talent drain is going to be massive over the next few months once the dust settles from this latest round. Just exhausted by the constant uncertainty.

The 'Molson Coors way' has definitely become corporate shorthand for doing more with less until you burn out. It feels like every time they talk about legacy, they’re really just trying to distract us from the reality that our roles are becoming increasingly disposable. It is impossible to feel any long-term loyalty or creative drive when the company culture prioritizes quarterly efficiency targets over the actual people building the brand. Honestly, the constant state of uncertainty makes it hard to care about the mission when you're just waiting for the next round of restructuring to hit your department.

I’ve been here long enough to see the shifts, and it is exhausting. Leadership keeps pushing this narrative of evolution, but to those of us on the ground, it just looks like a slow decline in morale. You can’t build a cohesive team or a meaningful product when everyone is operating from a place of survival rather than innovation. It is pretty clear that the human element has been completely stripped out of the business strategy. If they keep running the home office like a revolving door, they are eventually going to lose the institutional knowledge that made this place worth working at in the first place.
