Franklin Templeton - Anyone seen recent internal comms re: headcount?

Just wondering if anyone has seen or heard anything recently from leadership about headcount or organizational changes. My inbox has been pretty quiet on that front, and I haven't noticed any major reorganizations happening around me. However, the general market sentiment is pretty rough, and I know a lot of other asset managers have been making moves. Trying to gauge if FT is an outlier or if we're just quiet before the storm. Any insights from those further up the food chain or in different divisions would be helpful. Just trying to stay informed and make realistic career plans. Appreciate any info, even if it's just anecdotal.

Haven't seen anything concrete in my division, but the general vibe is definitely one of caution. It's hard to ignore what's happening across the industry, and it feels like everyone's holding their breath. Perhaps FT is just better positioned to weather this particular storm, or maybe the communication hasn't trickled down to all levels yet. It's definitely a strange quiet.

I've heard whispers, but nothing official. My sense is that while other firms are making drastic cuts, FT might be taking a more measured approach. Could be strategic, could be a sign they're waiting to see how things play out. Either way, the uncertainty is palpable, and it's understandable why people are looking for clarity from leadership.
