TRowe is a frustrating place to work
It is, without question, the most toxic corporate culture I have ever experienced. people spend their entire day pretending to be busy, yet no one actually values high-quality work or individual contributions. The biggest bottleneck is the... — read more

Make Sure To Vote AGAINST Rob’s Pay
Legitimately sickening that he is making millions while overseeing years of layoffs and decline. Make sure to vote against his pay in the proxy voting! Since apparently TRP is too chicken sh-t to send out an employee survey for the last 4? 5? years... — read more
In-Office Days (Maryland)

Anyone want to guess?
Has anyone received their severance check yet?
Still waiting for mine. Agreement says payment will be made "as soon as practicable" after termination but within 30 days. I don't suppose I should be surprised if they make us wait the full 30 days...

Did the email move you at all? 🤔 It felt hollow to me. If they could have gotten rid of all of us at once they would have. I feel more like we are on a subway train...yeah, all of us are moving "forward", but we all have "stops" ahead where we... — read more

I wanted to see what the global experience is with admin staff? In my local office, there’s an assistant that complains all the time about having to take cover multiple teams (a bit over a dozen people). On paper it looks like a lot but it’s often... — read more
Reconciling WARN notice with GM/GD layoff
WARN notice said 54 laid off in Baltimore alone. However, posts on this forum comment on ~59 laid off altogether from the Global Marketing and Distribution Enablement layoffs globally. Does that mean over 90% of cuts were in Baltimore alone? Why... — read more
5B more net outflows in January 2026
That’s according to the release. It feels like a never ending losing streak. Does anyone else find the Business and Distribution teams keep losses to themselves and only announce client wins… however small, if at all. Another large loss in my... — read more
Thoughts on Consultant Relations Group
Has anyone heard anything here? There were some commentary on this forum but looks like they got taken down. I always thought Consultant Relations roles were like cushy sales gigs where they weren’t on the hook for any actual sales.

Rob Sharps must be viewed as a complete and TOTAL Failure at this point
The company has been in a literal perpetual layoff cycle. A perfect record for outflows, constant executive turnover. Demolishing 2 of your newest buildings. Yet somehow giving himself a MASSIVE raise all while ruining people’s lives none stop! These... — read more
