Any signs of slowdown or layoffs at US Bank?

Hey everyone, been seeing a lot of chatter about potential cuts across the industry and wondering if anyone at US Bank is hearing anything concrete. My team's been pretty busy, but there's definitely a weird vibe lately. Projects feel like they're being scrutinized more, and there's been some talk about 'optimizing' resources. Nothing official, of course, but it's hard not to feel a bit antsy. Anyone else in different departments noticing similar trends or hearing whispers? Trying to gauge if this is a company-wide thing or just my specific corner of the bank. Just looking for some honest opinions and any intel you might have.

I'm in a back-office role and haven't seen any direct signs of layoffs. However, I've definitely noticed a tighter grip on new hires and a general increase in efficiency reviews. It feels like management is being extra cautious with spending across the board, which could be a precursor to something, or just standard belt-tightening. Hopefully, it's the latter.

Yeah, that 'optimizing resources' language is definitely going around. My department hasn't had any layoffs yet, but we've also had a few key people leave voluntarily and they haven't been backfilled. It creates a bit of extra pressure. It’s hard to shake the feeling that something is shifting, even if it's not a full-blown crisis yet.
