Sempra - What's the vibe in your department lately?

Hey everyone, logging in from Sempra. Been feeling a bit of a shift in my team over the past couple of months. Workload seems to be stabilizing, maybe even a little less urgent on some fronts than it was last year. Meetings feel a bit more drawn out, and there's less 'all hands on deck' energy for new initiatives. Just wondering if this is a widespread thing across Sempra or if it's just my corner of the company. Trying to gauge the general sentiment and if others are picking up on similar vibes. Not necessarily hearing any direct layoff talk, but the overall pace feels different. Anyone else experiencing this? Curious to hear what others are seeing or hearing from their managers/teams. Is it a sign of things to come, or just a normal ebb and flow?

Interesting observation. I can't say I've noticed a significant slowdown in my area, but perhaps the nature of our projects differs. We're still pushing hard on a few key deadlines, and the 'all hands on deck' feeling is definitely present for those. However, I do agree that some of the initial urgency around certain new projects seems to have tempered a bit once they got underway. It could be a natural part of project lifecycles, or maybe a broader strategic adjustment Sempra is making.

That's a really insightful question. My experience has been a bit mixed. While certain teams are definitely still running at full tilt, I have noticed a trend towards more deliberate planning and execution, which can sometimes feel like a slowdown compared to the frantic pace of previous years. The meetings comment resonates; there seems to be more discussion and consensus-building happening, which is good for alignment but can take longer. It's definitely a different energy than a year ago.
