Business Outlook

Pros

Many different opportunities and locations. Financial stability, even in a down market. A culture of teamwork. I am amazed at how many people have come back to Prudential after going to other firms. There seems to be a willingness to accommodate personal needs, special work schedules, transfers, etc. The benefits package is quite strong. Diversity is truly valued.

Cons

I am not sure compensation is at the top of the market. Advancement can be slow. Corporate office is in Newark, NJ.
