Help me understand this workplace psychology, why would I feel this way?

Question

There's not a lot of group communication at my work. I sit around some people but they work on unrelated projects. Most of the day it's just programming which I am fine with. But there's no group meetings or frequent status updates. I'm trying to figure out why this would make me feel like they are going to let people go at work or why the job wouldn't feel secure. They say they are busy and are actively trying to hire new people. Thanks

I have the same problem, I just started here 3 weeks ago and I think that is why I hate it so much.  Truth is, just bc there are no meetings doesn't mean you will be let go, that is just how some places are.  I suggest trying to find a job with a better environment if that is what you are missing.  I know I am.
