MSI - Anyone else seeing budget cuts outside of travel?

Beyond the travel and training budget stuff, are other departments at Motorola Solutions experiencing significant budget cuts? I'm hearing about potential reductions in R&D funding for some projects and even delays in planned software updates. It feels like more than just a seasonal dip. Management is doing their usual song and dance about 'efficiency' and 'prioritization,' but the impact seems pretty real. Makes me a bit nervous about future project stability and even headcount down the line if these cuts are severe. Anyone else in a different division seeing similar signs? Just trying to gauge the temperature across the company.

Yeah, I've been hearing similar rumblings across different teams. It's not just about trimming the fat anymore; it feels like they're actively reassessing the value of certain initiatives. The R&D talk is particularly concerning, as that's usually where the innovation comes from. If that's being squeezed, it definitely raises questions about long-term growth and where the company is headed. Management's language about 'efficiency' can only mask so much before people start looking for opportunities elsewhere.
