Anyone else seeing huge shifts in project priorities post-layoffs?

Been with P&G for about 7 years, primarily in supply chain for a major fabric care brand. Since the June 11th announcement, things have felt... chaotic. My manager is suddenly MIA half the time, and the strategic projects we were all focused on a month ago are being shelved or radically changed. It feels like there's no clear direction anymore. We lost a bunch of folks from our analytics team, and now the data we need for even basic reporting is delayed or incomplete. Is this happening elsewhere? Are they reallocating resources aggressively, or is it just a sign of things to come? Curious to hear if others are experiencing this kind of whiplash.

Hang in there. It sounds incredibly stressful, especially after being with the company for so long. Those shifts in priorities and the lack of clear direction after layoffs are unfortunately common, but that doesn't make it any easier for you and your team. Focus on what you *can* control, even if it's just getting through the day. Maybe try to connect with colleagues who are also feeling adrift; sometimes just knowing you're not alone helps. Keep your head down, do your best with the new directives, and start polishing that resume if the situation doesn't stabilize soon.

This sounds like a classic case of organizational churn following restructuring. While it's frustrating, it's not entirely unexpected. When key people leave, especially from data-heavy teams like analytics, the ripple effect on project timelines and reporting is immediate. Perhaps focus on establishing new communication channels or seeking out the remaining analytics folks to understand their new workflow and limitations. Documenting the impact of these changes on your own work might be helpful, both for your manager and for potential future discussions about resource allocation.
