Business Outlook

Pros

There is a very supportive management team at Prudential who provide excellent educational opportunities to all associates. They also offer great advertising support to their associates.

Cons

Difficult to take time off in the real estate business and achieve work/life balance. Real estate associates (as in most companies) are independent contractors and must provide their own benefits.

Business Outlook

Pros

Prudential and its managers give you many different resources to succeed. If you are willing to follow there advice and put in the hours you will enjoy working here. The work environment is very professional. Prudential offers some of the best products in the market so you are selling products you believe in.

Cons

You have to be willing to chase people around. The first couple of years are very hard and you are going to feel under payed. You have to be able to deal with rejection on a daily bases. To find sales you have to be willing to drive all over NC and SC.

Business Outlook

Pros

Fair pay, flexible work schedules in most departments and pretty good benefits. There is a big emphasis on diversity and work, life balance.

Cons

Senior Management, and much of Middle Management are very fearful, distrustful and ignorant of technology. For years it has been seen as a necessary evil, and only embraced when it could offer more metrics. Technology to make the work more efficient, easier or faster takes a back seat to 'what reports can I get out of it?" The technology departments are also being gutted. Layoffs have stripped IT departments of most of their experience.
