Pros

Lots of information and helpful management. Free CE classes provided by corporate.

Cons

No base pay! For a new associate with no book of business it is verrrry hard to make a livable wage. Not to mention, they recommend that you work with seasoned producers but are expected to share 50% of commission with them! Sounds fair enough however my experience is that they rarely brought me in to work any of their big cases. I would have been happy with 20% to process the contracts etc. Honestly Prudential needs to create more of a safety net for new advisors and associates. The Pandemic wiped us out!

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 Can be a comfortable landing spot if you're able to tune out the outdated processes and legacy mindset.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.
