Is anyone else feeling the pre-layoff jitters?

Okay, I know there's no official announcement, but the vibe in here is getting really tense. I've been seeing a lot of older posts from a year or two ago talking about layoffs, and now with the recent news from other tech companies, it's hard not to get anxious. My team has been quiet, and some projects seem to be slowing down. Performance reviews just wrapped up, and the feedback was... okay, not great, not terrible. But I keep replaying every conversation, wondering if 'needs improvement' is code for 'first on the list.' Has anyone else heard any whispers or noticed any specific changes within their departments that might be a sign of something coming? I'm trying to stay positive and focus on my work, but it's tough when the elephant in the room is getting bigger. Just looking for some commiseration or maybe some actual intel if anyone has it. Seriously, the uncertainty is the worst part.

I'm feeling it too. The silence on some initiatives is deafening, and it definitely doesn't feel like business as usual. It's tough when you can't get a straight answer, and the general industry climate just adds to the unease. Trying to stay focused on my work but it's hard to ignore the elephant in the room. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst, I guess.
