Anyone else feeling the pressure at MDLZ lately?

Just checking in to see if anyone else at Mondelez is feeling a general sense of unease or increased workload. Been here a few years and things have felt a bit tighter lately. Not sure if it's just my department or a broader company trend. Been seeing more 'urgent' requests, longer hours becoming the norm, and just a general vibe that things are a bit more high-strung. Morale seems to be dipping a bit too, or maybe I'm just projecting. Wondering if anyone has insights or experiences similar things across different divisions. Is it just the nature of CPG right now, or is there something specific happening at MDLZ that I'm missing? Curious to hear what others are seeing and feeling.

I've noticed something similar, honestly. It feels like the pace has picked up significantly across the board. There's definitely a sense of having to do more with less, and the 'urgent' tasks seem to be piling up faster than they can be addressed. It's tough to maintain a good work-life balance when it feels like the goalposts are constantly shifting and the pressure is always on. I'm hoping it's a temporary phase, but it's been going on for a while now.

You're not alone in feeling that. I've been hearing a lot of chatter about the increased workload and the feeling of being stretched thin. It seems like there's a constant push for efficiency, which, while understandable, is really impacting the day-to-day experience for many. The morale dip is noticeable, and it's hard not to feel it when deadlines are tight and the expectations keep rising. Curious to see if there are any explanations or strategies being shared internally.
