Business Outlook

Pros

Great training, you will learn everything there is to know about financial products and how they work along with a very good variable annuity program, and competive insurance and mutual fund costs.

Cons

If you don't have contacts (Prudential wants you to sell to who you know) good luck. Once you use up all your contacts, that is if you have any to begin with, management will maybe periodically pay for a 1,000 piece mailer to market yourself

Since starting at Prudential in 2005, I have had a very positive experience. I've had upward mobility since starting and have learned a lot about the different areas within Annuities since starting here.

Cons

It takes a little while to go through the interview process when a position is posted.
