Hey folks, been keeping an eye on things at State Street and wanted to see if anyone else is noticing the same. Lately, it feels like fewer new positions are being posted, and some roles I saw a few months back have just vanished from the careers page. It's not like there's a big official announcement or anything, but the vibe feels… tighter. Are teams not backfilling attrition? Is there a de facto hiring freeze in place that management isn't openly discussing? Trying to get a pulse on whether this is just a seasonal slowdown or something more deliberate. My team's workload hasn't decreased, so it's not like there's less work to go around. Curious to hear if anyone has insights or has heard anything through the grapevine about headcount management. Trying to stay ahead of potential changes.

Yeah, I've picked up on that too. The careers page definitely feels thinner than it did last quarter. I work in [Department Name] and we've had a couple of roles open for a while that just seem to be stuck in limbo, no interviews, no movement. It’s definitely not the same hiring pace we saw even six months ago. It does make you wonder what the strategy is behind the scenes. Hopefully, it's just a temporary adjustment and not a sign of bigger issues down the line for the company.
