Pros

Sales skills, industry knowledge, organization / time management

Cons

Spin it how they want this is an insurance job with some annuities sprinkled in. Management will lie to you, you will never get good leads, and you will eventually leave and be replaced. The old reps that are there don't want to be bothered, have some comm trails but are generally poor advisors to learn from. Join an RIA not a dual-registered firm that trumpets insurance (dont listen when they say ohh but you can sell whatever you want). Ask them to pair you with a senior advisor that can teach you about planning and that regularly sells anything but prudential products....lol

Pros

Solid benefits package, manageable workload. Can be a comfortable landing spot if you're able to tune out the outdated processes and legacy mindset.

Cons

The company undergoes frequent restructuring, and technical leadership often lacks the depth needed to guide modern engineering decisions. The culture can feel rooted in an older, more traditional mindset, and promising initiatives frequently get stuck in POC hell rather than reaching production. Career progression is also very manager-dependent; the wrong reporting relationship can significantly stall your growth. Overall technical bar is low — if you're trying to sharpen your skills, this environment may hold you back rather than push you forward.
