The workload, uncertainty, and constant pressure pushed my stress far beyond what I could manage. I ended up on short term disability after experiencing blood pressure over 180, chest pain, and other physical symptoms. Please, be kind to yourselves... — read more 

TRP is finally requiring groups that have been working fully remote to return to the office four days a week, bringing them in line with the rest of the workforce. For once, the company’s talk about treating employees equally appears to be reflected... — read more 

Nothing else to add. Extract everything from the worker. Shame.

Any thoughts on the recent AMA - Towne Hall? Any answers or more questions?

It's ironic when you have a manager who was notorious for bullying staff out the door to then get fired. What's even more outrageous is when that manager then tries to claim for unfair dismissal even though they were one of the worst performing... — read more 

Recently I went on vacation. People commented that I was more like myself after a few days. When I returned to work the bitterness and frustration returned by lunchtime. The only path for me is out of here. Incompetent and inept Accenture workers... — read more 

Please start preparing yourselves. It will not be small and it will not be pretty. Plus, with the job market being what it is, you need to start looking sooner rather than later to have any chance of landing something. Just a few words of advice from... — read more 

So what does everyone think? I guess we know why Ramon always seemed to be in DC. I wonder if layoffs/offshoring will start for those folks once "synergies" are determined. Overlaps in back-office, compliance, or distribution could eventually lead... — read more 

The ice cream social is a pitiful and cheap attempt to recover morale

Here we go again…more net outflows for July! $8.2 billion in outflows.

Fidelity has ended hybrid work. 75,000 employees now expected to be in the office 5 days per week JPM, Goldman, BofA, Morgan Stanley, PNC and Trust have all moved to 5 day mandates in the past year. Maybe this can put a 4-1 mandate into...

Why is the stock price down $8 today? Earnings call? Please explain.

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

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

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
