In house for the past year. Company plans to reorganize my department. They say no layoffs planned but is it worth sticking around to find out?

I went in house a little over a year ago at the US subsidiary of a large multinational. I am a 6th year in a niche practice group and was only at my last firm for 7 months before taking this role. Was at two firms prior to that.

I love my job but I worry about longevity given some of the changes that have happened and are planned to occur next year. In January they’re adding a new team to my department and are restructuring the global counterpart to my team so that my department will serve the global company more somehow. They just released a 5 year financial plan that shows financial struggles for the immediate future.

Leadership has made multiple comments about “tightening our belts” and “justifying our roles” and my manager’s advice is to have your pitch for why your role adds value ready. At the same time they’re saying we’ll be busier, but not adding headcount.

Should I start looking for a new job?
