Pros

401k match is great Benefits are a little bit better than what I’ve experienced outside of T. Rowe Price. Usually a higher base salary than other places.

Cons

Annual bonuses provide almost zero incentive. Senior mgmt is clueless and inept. They focus more on their careers than growing the business and their associates. The last 5-8 years the culture has changed from open dialogue and sharing ideas to get on on board or leave. No one shares their honest opinion for fear for getting on the naughty list. If you’re a person of color, good luck, you’re a minority in the leadership ranks. Annual bonuses for sales positions do not motivate staff and it’s based on a stack rank. This means we compete against our peers for a limited amount of money. Bad for a collaborative culture.

Pros

Total compensation is competitive, new hires are eager to jump in, and it seems like a company strategy is finally coming together. Things continue to move slowly though because projects from the loudest voice or most tenured associates tend to get prioritized and throw off critical investments into fixing data, process, and tech debt issues to mature our ability to market like it’s 2026 instead of 2016.

Cons

Too many bottlenecks to execution; If you’re seeking to make a meaningful impact, don’t expect it fast. Expect to navigate uncertainty while the company claims to help clients do this for their portfolios instead of helping associates to help clients — This is branded fluff for leadership without clear direction, driving teams to waste too much time and energy in meetings and boring demo decks every month to make being busy look like value by being the loudest voice, which is what you’ll notice many of the most tenured associates do best. Slides might look pretty but AI doesn’t make sense of this noise and clients don’t benefit from all the hours spent in PowerPoint. Unclear ownership leads to internal redundancies or team friction, on top of the inconsistent documentation and fragmented data siloes that are ironically impeding readiness for AI mandates coming from the CEO.
