Yeah, I've definitely felt that here too. It's like every little purchase requires a longer justification than it used to. Been hearing whispers about a general belt-tightening across the board. My manager's been a bit more cautious with approving things that seemed routine just a few months ago. Hopefully, it's just a temporary phase and not a sign of bigger issues down the line.
Interesting to hear others are noticing this. We've been told it's just 'fiscal responsibility' but the level of detail being asked for on even minor expense reports is pretty intense. Things that used to be auto-approved now get a deep dive. Makes you wonder if there's a specific project or division causing financial strain, or if it's a company-wide strategy shift.
