This is more or less just to vent, but I’m tired of the “do more with less” attitude here. I know I’m not the only one whose team has been expected to take on more work with less resources, make sense of vague information from leadership, all with no... — read more 

What are y'all thoughts on this? Some companies have started doing this recently and it got me thinking about TRP.

The answer is: this TRP MC member recently joined the board of another public company.

After yesterday’s presentation I still don’t know what Next 90 is.

Profits down? Lay off the workers. Profits up? Lay off the workers anyway to show even better numbers. There's no scenario where we come out ahead. No matter what happens, we're the ones who get sacrificed. It makes you wonder if there's any... — read more 

I'm trying to find out if we're looking at cuts in August. Anyone hear anything?

This is my view of where we are in '26. Take allof this with a grain of salt as I've been wrong many times before. This is reflecting my views and I am not sharing any internal information. And, yes, I am angry: The culture has changd and not for... — read more 

I made a promise to myself I'd be out of here months ago. I've tried everything but every offer I get pays way less than what I'm currently making. I'd take a cut but not that much.

I ain’t in America but the reorg over there has got me thinking about what happens in my region and country. Has anyone heard much? Is the USA the first to restructure and then other countries follow?

It used to be a place that valued intelligence and creative thinking—a place that took the time to nurture those ideas and bring them to life. Bottom-up really worked here, once. And now? Collaboration in name only. It’s full of political operators... — read more 

The consultants hired for the F2BOW initiative have set a target headcount reduction of 60-100. This is for business only, tech headcount reductions haven’t been determined yet, but they said there is significant “capacity creation” there as well. No... — read more 

I've never seen anything like it. The leadership is full of people who have no business being in their roles. They've been promoted beyond their ability and they're just making it up as they go. They've created a culture where people just follow... — read more 

I can’t understand why the company is launching all these products that end up being duds. Products that have very little AUM in them after 1-2 years and where they likely will not grow to reach scale. It ends up being a drain on resources and time... — read more 

The Wall Street Journal evaluates how leading US corps stack up in 6 areas: AI readiness, innovation, talent readiness, financial fitness, resilience and agility. T. Rowe Price ranks #332 overall with an Overall Score of 46.0, placing it 32nd out... — read more 

I'll say it plainly. This is a blind company without any real direction. If you think I'm wrong, go ahead and prove it.

At the ISP Town Hall last week, during the agenda portion at the beginning the moderator mentioned QA’s and a meeting pulse. Eric said “you’re not going to allow 4-1 questions right?” Leadership in the room all giggled. Then he said “gas prices are... — read more 

There’s so much angst and misdirected frustration on this forum. This is an investment company. Not IT, not Distribution, not “Architecture”. Only 10% of associates are investment staff. They generate the profits. They make the money. Rest all... — read more 

I've witnessed several managers openly talk about protecting themselves whenever deadlines slip or projects run into trouble. Meetings usually turn into long discussions about who caused the issue rather than how to solve it. Very few people seem... — read more 

Anyone else not getting paid c suite money is a part of the brokie class. That includes the d-mb white men that hates everyone and thinks they deserve more. There is no DEI garbage anymore after trump took over. Anyways, 200k a year in this economy... — read more 

In my org, two people were shown the door yesterday. It wasn't a layoff but outright firing. This is after another person was fired a few months ago. I won't lie, the whole thing is making me very nervous. Is this something that's been happening more... — read more 

I used to think that liking your job was a normal expectation, something that most people could reasonably hope for. After spending so much time in this place, I am genuinely not sure anymore. Is there an assumption that we are all just supposed to... — read more 

Do the math! Redundancy costs and also staff decreases are in the notices. If you average it out it’s a lot more than most people are getting. What gives? Obviously there are a few people who are getting paid out a big fat wad of cash while most of... — read more 

Looking at Seb Page's "mental health" advice - Watch Netflix on sundays?!??!? How fu--ing out of touch with people do you have to be???????

That’s at least three architecture team reorgs in recent years. Moving the same people into new titles isn't going to fix the core issues

Has anyone forced out or currently training their replacements have any luck finding a new job? Can you share any tips? Did that "job search assistance" they offer help at all? I read that you get taxed in your severance for that "benefit". If it... — read more

Is this curtains for RS? Will it change anything

Per Rob’s most recent email, our teams will remain intact until January 1st. After that? Who knows!

I’ve been shocked by the amount of disdain directed at long-time T. Rowe associates on this board, especially toward IT staff. It’s hard to tell whether this comes from just a few loud voices with axes to grind or a broader sentiment. My experience... — read more 

I'm putting this out there for my former coworkers who might be in denial like I was. You might be getting managed out if your work is suddenly being micromanaged. If you're getting impossible deadlines. If you're being left out of meetings you used... — read more 

USD10.6B outflows in April alone. What the helly! Do you think lazy RM teams marked those client accounts as vulnerable?

No energy. No details. Just work faster and harder.

Our leadership only cares about costs and stock prices right now. Long term? That's someone else's problem. We're all just numbers to them.

What are the odds they will clear whole team from small offices internationally? They’ve done it to some lone rangers but what about other teams?

What are your thoughts on the new initiative?

I'll be brief - almost all of them are always performative, vague... overly scripted and fu--ing unable to execute...
