Pros

Benefits and pay are great but the role is entry level with a 1 year commitment. They start you out at 40,000 per year and you work 2-8 hours of overtime each week during the busy season for income taxes and RMD’s which is good money.

Cons

Overworked during busy season leads to burn out, if you don’t pass the Series 6, 63 and SIE licensing you lose your job immediately. Lots of managers over large teams of people that pretend like they have never been in your shoes and some haven’t. They talk about growth opportunities but most require licensing and the position is very repetitive. It’s easy work at times but you take 40-60 calls per day (if not more) with little time to break in between.

Pros

Working with highly talented group of people. The company's name has a lot of weight and looks good on your resume. It's a very diverse company.

Cons

Contractor beware. I was brought on as a contract-to-hire. Three months in T. Rowe announced they were freezing hiring, but they extended my contract regardless. A year later they announced they weren't extending contractors except in extraordinary circumstances. When I started I was the the third contractor on my team and when I left my team had no contractors left. So whatever they promise you to get in the door, take with a grain of salt. Also be forewarned: contractors will be furloughed over the Winter holidays, that's three weeks of pay you'll lose. I've contracted elsewhere in my career and T Rowe stands out for how contractors are second class employees. Besides furloughs you won't be able to attend many meetings or get training. Meanwhile you'll have to adhere to the same strict scrutiny as a regular employee: the company will monitor your stock transactions and prevent you from participating in all sorts of outside activities.
