Hang in there. It's completely understandable to feel uneasy with all the buzzwords and restructuring talk floating around. The med device sector has definitely seen some shifts lately, and that uncertainty can be stressful, especially when you're in a critical area like R&D. Keep an eye on official communications, but also trust your instincts. Networking within the company, even informally, might give you a better pulse on what's truly happening beyond the general chatter.
I'm not in R&D, but I've definitely felt the 'streamlining' push across other departments. It seems like a lot of companies are navigating a tricky market by focusing on efficiency. While the atmosphere can be tense, remember that R&D is usually core to innovation and long-term growth. Focus on delivering value and documenting your contributions. Staying informed about broader company goals and how your team aligns can also help alleviate some of that worry.
