Hey everyone, been with SPG for a few years now and lately, it feels like we're being asked to do more with less. My team's been swamped, and projects that used to have dedicated resources are now being spread thin. Anyone else in different departments seeing the same thing? It's not just my area; I've heard similar murmurs from folks in retail operations and even some corporate functions. Wondering if this is a sign of things to come or just a temporary crunch. Doesn't feel sustainable long-term, especially with the market being what it is. Curious to hear if others are feeling this pressure cooker environment and if there's any internal communication about how these increased demands are supposed to be met. Feels like we're expected to just 'figure it out' without any additional support or clear direction. Makes it tough to stay motivated when you're constantly feeling behind.

Yeah, I've definitely felt that too. It seems like the expectation for output has gone up without a corresponding increase in headcount or resources. Projects are getting more complex, and the timelines aren't adjusting. It makes it tough to maintain the quality of work we want to deliver, and honestly, it's leading to burnout. Hoping it's a temporary situation, but it's been going on for a while now. Curious to hear if others have found ways to manage this or if management is acknowledging the strain.
