Is the PA office completely done for?

It’s been radio silence on my end since the news broke. I’ve been trying to figure out if this is just a trim or if they’re planning to shutter the Luzerne site entirely by Q3. The vibe in the Slack channels has been absolute deathly silence, which I guess is expected, but the lack of transparency is starting to give me major anxiety. I’ve been with the team for over three years, and hearing that 58 people got the axe out of nowhere makes me feel like my badge is just a countdown clock now. Anyone on the inside have intel on whether they are pushing for full remote or if more office-based roles are on the chopping block? I’m already dusting off the resume just in case, but I’d hate to jump ship if the core team is actually stable. Just feels like every time we get a positive earnings report, management finds a new reason to lean out the headcount.

Honestly, the silence from leadership is the biggest red flag here. I went through a similar headcount reduction last year, and they never give you the full picture until the building is basically empty. If they aren't answering direct questions on Slack, you should probably assume the worst for that office. Start updating your resume tonight and ping everyone you know in the industry. Don't wait for an official announcement that might never come—protect yourself first.

I wouldn't jump to conclusions just yet. These corporate restructurings are often chaotic and poorly managed, which explains the lack of transparency, but it doesn't always mean a full site closure is imminent. Plenty of offices have survived these types of cuts before. Try to focus on your immediate deliverables and keep your head down for now. The anxiety is understandable, but try not to let the rumor mill paralyze you until you get some concrete info from your actual manager.
