Principal Financial Group reviews

Please note: all of my experience was with the PGI group within Principal. Can't speak to any other groups. Toxic work environment. Management was pretty clueless about how to implement the cloud strategy. They want to move EVERYTHING to the cloud; not just that, but they want to move it to an different RDBMS system. They want to do this without providing any kind of meaningful training; the expectation seems to be the employees should spend their own personal time learning the cloud environment, while keeping up with their existing responsibilities. Absolutely no appreciation for the job being done to keep the lights on while this new strategy moves forward. There seems to be a philosophy that about 1/3 of the employees will get below average ratings, regardless if they are doing a good job or not. I heard from many employees who have experienced this. If you are looking for an IT job, stay away from PGI within Principal.

Any job in Marketer Services is NOT marketing. It is data entry and customer service. Tricks many new college grads into thinking its a marketing job
