ServiceNow SD: Workload after the recent layoffs?

So, 63 people gone from the San Diego office. I'm still here, and already feeling the pressure. My team seems to be absorbing tasks from the people who left, and it's starting to feel unsustainable. Anyone else in San Diego experiencing a significant increase in workload? Are projects still on track, or are we already seeing delays? It's tough to do your best work when you're constantly worried about being the next one on the list and also having to pick up the slack. Just hoping this doesn't become the new normal where we're all stretched incredibly thin. Any advice on how to manage this increased pressure while still trying to hit goals?

Yeah, the vibe here is definitely tense. Seeing familiar faces go is hard enough, but then having to immediately dive into their responsibilities without any extra support is brutal. We're trying to prioritize, but some of the 'must-do' items are starting to slide, and the fear of missing deadlines is real. Hoping leadership has a plan to redistribute things more effectively, because this current pace isn't sustainable long-term.

I'm not in San Diego, but I've heard similar stories from other locations. It feels like a lot of pressure is being put on the remaining folks to maintain the same output with fewer resources. My team is swamped, and we're constantly having to explain why certain things are taking longer than usual. The impact on morale is significant, and honestly, the concern about future cuts is always in the back of everyone's mind.
