Anyone else feeling the pressure at X lately? Feels like a stealth layoff.

Been working at X for a few years now, and things have felt... off lately. No official announcements, no big all-hands meetings about cuts, but you can feel it. Teams are smaller, people are overworked, and there's this constant undercurrent of anxiety. Heard some chatter about performance reviews being unusually harsh this cycle, and some folks I used to work with on projects suddenly just... gone. No fanfare, just their access revoked. Feels like they're bleeding people out slowly rather than doing a big, clean cut. Anyone else experiencing this? Is it just my department, or is this a wider thing happening across the company? Starting to update my resume just in case, but it's a weird, unsettling feeling when you don't know if your job is safe.

Yeah, I'm picking up on the same vibe. It's like a weird game of musical chairs, but nobody's actually talking about the music stopping. People are picking up extra work without complaint because, frankly, who wants to be the one noticed? Just hoping things stabilize, but this slow-burn anxiety is definitely real.
