VeriSign - Slowdown in project timelines?

Hey everyone, Been at VeriSign for a couple of years now and things have been pretty steady. Lately though, I've noticed a definite slowdown in how quickly projects are moving. It feels like approvals are taking longer, and there's a general sense of things being put on hold. It's not a huge thing, but enough that it's become a recurring observation across a few different teams I interact with. No official word on anything, and my manager is saying everything is normal. But it's hard not to get a little antsy when you see these subtle shifts. Anyone else picking up on this? Is it just my imagination, or are others seeing similar patterns? Wondering if this is a precursor to something, or just a general market adjustment impacting us in ways we don't see directly. Curious to hear what others think. Trying to stay objective here but it's hard not to speculate a bit.
