Pros

Benefits are good, the training I received when I first started was decent, they pay for licensing and the coworkers are generally friendly good people.

Cons

I wrote a nice stellar review for T. Rowe during my first year but I had to go back and delete it because things took a steep turn down the toilet. The workplace department (WISE) has had 5-8 hours of over time each week consistently for over 6 months. We work 10+ hours a day with 30 minute lunches for months on end. It would be nice if they gave raises and maybe a nice bonus as a thank you for all this extra work but those are non-existent for most of us. Different excuses were given to everyone as to why they were not receiving a raise, so unless you have have absolutely perfect metrics don't expect to be recognized or rewarded. Even if your call quality, service and accuracy is great it doesn't matter, these things don't seem to be important to T. Rowe Price. They've fallen so far behind in hiring people that all they care about is answering as many calls as possible as quickly as possible. This combined with the closure of the Tampa office really highlights the companies priorities right now. Quantity over quality. It's sad to see as there seemed to be a lot of potential when I first started, but now everyone in the office is depressed and hates their job.

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.
