It is happening, subtle but ongoing.

You can call it efficiency, forced attrition, raising the bar, whatever. A lot more CM & CT since the war started and CDCs are bloodbaths now, protect yourself with work if you can, though don’t expect billability alone will save you.

Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.
