Principal® named a Best Place to Work in Money Management by Pensions & Investments

Principal Asset ManagementSM, the investment unit of Principal Financial Group®, announced today it has been named a Best Place to Work in Money Management among the largest employers1 by Pensions & Investments. This is the 11th consecutive year Principal has been recognized as a best place to work, earning the recognition every year since the inception of the program.

“Workplace expectations have changed dramatically over the last few years, and our consistent recognition on the list of Best Places to Work in Money Management is a testament to our commitment to the employee experience,” said Pat Halter, president, Principal Asset Management.  “Without the work of our employees and leaders to create a positive culture, we would not be able to deliver results on behalf of our clients.”

With approximately $484.6 billion in total assets under management2, Principal Asset Management is the 23rd largest manager of institutional assets3 in the world of those profiled by Pensions & Investments. 

Presented by Pensions & Investments, the annual survey and recognition program is dedicated to identifying and recognizing the best employers in the money management industry. Pensions & Investments partnered with Best Companies Group, a research firm specializing in identifying great places to work, to conduct a two-part survey process of employers and their employees. 

The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies.
