Is a RIF coming? Seeing more 'efficiency' talk in Q3 emails
3E
0x3ef5…7b77Is it just me, or has the tone in the internal newsletters shifted significantly over the last few weeks? Leadership keeps dropping buzzwords like 'optimizing operational footprint' and 'streamlining resource allocation.' Usually, whenever we start hearing about streamlining, the next step is a round of involuntary separations. My manager keeps cancelling our 1:1s and acting weird, which is never a good sign. Has anyone heard anything through the grapevine from HR or finance? I’m in one of the divisions that has been underperforming lately, and the anxiety is starting to get to me. I’ve already started dusting off the resume just in case, but I’d rather know if the ship is sinking before I go down with it. If anyone has intel on whether they are planning a headcount reduction for Q4, please share. Better to prepare now than get caught off guard.
