Pros

Prudential has plenty of opportunities for growth. It is a huge Fortune 500 company that deals with Insurance, Retirement Planning and Annuities. There are always positions opening up so as long as you work hard and are dedicated to your work you will have plenty of opportunities to grow within the company. Also the company looks mainly to hire from within. They also offer an excellent benefits package and give many vacation and personal days. You may be asked to work extra hours during busy periods but it is not too bad. I would def reccomend other ppl look to get a job here.

Cons

Since Prudential is such a large company, often times you can get looked over if you do not make yourself known. If you are the type of person that just does their work and leaves the office, it will be difficult to advance with this company. You have to be proactive while working here. Ppl will not notice you if you do not make your self known. Also, the salary they offer is not great. It is not bad, it is pretty much industry average, nothing more nothing less. So if you want that huge payday, look some where else.

Pros

Respected old company with a great reputation. Compensation is fair for the most part. Good benefits and time off - if you can manage to take off a day.

Cons

Major promotion of typical corporate b.s.. All-inclusive corporate culture tries to be everything to everyone and serve as nanny to employees. Innovation and forward-thinking ideas looked down upon for the most part. You're either an insider or you're an outsider, and no amount of hard work and dedication is going to get you into that club if you don't know someone. The company rests on its laurels and thinks it can do no wrong.
