Pros

The work life balance is very good compared to other companies, the pay is above average, and there's good mobility amongst different departments.

Cons

With many employees working at Pru for their entire career there's tough upward mobility for new employees, much of the data systems are outdated, and the HQ is in Newark.

Pros

Encouraging, great support, friendly environment. Truly a great place to work. If you cannot be successful at Starck, it is truly your own fault. They will give you all the training and support you need. Other agents are helpful and not vindictive or back stabbers. It is a supportive team.

Cons

I cannot think of one. It is commission based pay which may be difficult for some that need more consistent income. The agent-company split is fair and the fees are reasonable.
