LSI - Productivity pressure increasing?

Has anyone else noticed a significant uptick in pressure to deliver on metrics and output in LSI lately? It feels like the expectation to do more with less is really ramping up. Performance reviews are coming up, and the bar seems to be getting higher, even with the current economic uncertainties. My manager keeps talking about 'efficiency gains' and 'optimizing resources,' which sounds a lot like code for 'get more done without more people.' It's making for a pretty stressful environment. Just wondering if this is a common sentiment across the division, or if I'm in a particularly high-pressure silo. Any thoughts on how to navigate this or what might be driving it?

Yeah, I've definitely felt that shift too. It seems like the focus on hitting aggressive targets has intensified across the board, not just in LSI. My team's been hearing similar buzzwords about efficiency and optimization. It's tough when you're already stretched thin and then told to find even more ways to be productive. Makes you wonder what the long-term plan is if it's all about squeezing more out of the existing workforce.
