Feeling the burnout? TRP culture shift
28
0x28dd…0833Is it just me, or has the atmosphere at T. Rowe Price become significantly more tense over the last few months? Since the December layoffs, the 'do more with less' mantra has reached an exhausting level. It feels like we are constantly being asked to pick up the slack for open roles that aren't being backfilled. I get that the market environment is tough and asset management is feeling the squeeze, but the current pace is completely unsustainable. I’m seeing some of our best talent quietly updating their LinkedIn profiles, and frankly, I don't blame them. The communication from leadership is all corporate speak about 'strategic alignment,' but in the trenches, it just feels like we’re being squeezed until something breaks. Has anyone actually seen a clear roadmap for how we’re supposed to handle these increased workloads, or are we just supposed to accept that this is the new normal until headcount starts to normalize again? I’m genuinely curious if others are hitting this wall or if I’m just feeling the mid-winter slump harder than everyone else.
