We can easily save money by freezing hiring, freezing travel, and penny pinching spending.
Oh wait... But we did that already.
But why are projects delayed???!!
I'm the VP of inflated egos and I don't understand! I hired two 3rd world contractors to take the place of that principle engineer. According to my advanced calculations... 2/1, we should have twice the productivity!
Well I've got a solution...
I'll create a new corporate team of VP's, give it a cool name, and our meetings will save money!
Winning. Too much winning!
Our teams just had a flash call,
Bob wants to move quickly and how,

Across corporate and in the stores too. This Christmas is going to be a flop. People are broke, some can’t even afford food, and plenty aren’t getting paid because of the government shutdown. With the prices up, expect spending to drop hard this holiday season. Mark my words, the results will be brutal, and we all know what comes next.

And layoffs are rampant. The demand is tapering off and customers/clients are asking for more with less people and $$$. So, that'd be the environment right now. Things will continue to trend down and it's so hard to find jobs nowdays with everyone laying off people, budgets goin down, etc. Plus tariffs plus geo-political instability plus AI - you get what I am trying to say...
Good luck no matter what!!!!!
Today, October 29, 2025, Xavier announced firings from departments that uphold the mission of the school. From the Office of Social Justice to CAMPUS MINISTRY, people were let go due to budget cuts, yet racist, mean spirited professors are still here. How can you claim to prepare students to mold a more just and humane society when you're firing the people who help to form students into these leaders. We deserve better.

Has anyone heard any rumors related to 2025 bonus pool? There are a ton of meetings related to reductions of budgets, almost like a last minute scramble to cut costs. Maybe we should have subleased Frisco and ramped up remote work?
Lot of commercial work has just vanished in aero. I am looking for charge numbers without a lot of opportunity. Bracing for the worst. Cut all of my expenses and cancelled a vacation over holidays to build emergency fund.

Kansas City’s transit agency is facing a budget shortfall. City council members have already approved about 78 million dollars for KCATA and are considering an additional 46 million dollars to keep operations funded through October. In return, they want significant operational changes from the agency.
The proposal would cut routes and reduce service, include staffing reductions, and explore a fare program that charges riders who can afford to pay. The council is expected to vote on the ordinance next week. The aim is to stabilize finances while reshaping service levels, but the tradeoff could be fewer buses and drivers across the city.
Oakland faces a projected 129 million dollar one year budget shortfall and is pivoting to a back to basics approach. City leaders say priorities remain community safety, housing security, essential services, and collecting owed revenues. At a budget hearing, staff outlined difficult choices needed to rein in spending and balance the books.
If approved Dec 17, phase one would cut a little over 204 million dollars. Measures include reductions to city staff and police overtime, postponing one police academy, browning out two fire stations, and transferring money into the general fund from other sources. Proposed shifts include about 6 million dollars from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, about 15 million dollars from the Self Insurance Liability Fund, and nearly 10 million dollars from the Emergency Reserve fund that exceeds policy minimums.

UC Health is cutting 50 jobs across its organization, citing financial pressures and the need to reduce costs. The Cincinnati-based academic health system, which has about 12,000 employees, says those affected have been offered severance and may apply for other open positions within UC Health. Earlier this year, the system disclosed plans to shut down a post-acute care facility and an assisted living facility by the end of September - moves projected to affect about 474 workers. Also, UC Health will wind down its Mobile Stroke Unit later this month, though those workers will remain employed. UC Health is headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio.

They really cut the budget huh? Ive learned more from a high school substitute teacher than these "presentations" on grainy zoom video from offshore.
All of these unrealistic budget projections and talk of losing money is so they will not have to pay out on our bonuses. the 1st step in figuring the amount of money toward bonuses is company profit. It they company loses money, there is no profit, therefore no bonus money.
You should never count your chickens before they hatch but especially dont spend your planned bonus money because it is all but a given there will be none to very little come March 26.
While the company is poised for (in amidst of) growth -- our group's (operations) budgets are being aggressively cut. Are we looking to divest some low margin aspects of the company or any people actions?

The company no longer values longevity or tenure. A couple times a year, they cut budget which means take chunks out of operating costs by chopping tenured people. Use them for a couple years and then move on...
Is it true due budget cutting?
