Prudential has had a lot of change.

Pros

I control my workday and that affords me flexibility. I work remotely.

Cons

The leaders care about their pockets, not their people. Pay is low. The ‘total benefits’ package has gotten smaller and smaller. When you ask for help, it is not given.

Zero Work-life Balance and Bad Management is your taste - go for it!

Pros

Salary and Benefits are on par with Big Banks in specific roles. If you don't have family and find a consulting gig, this might be the thing for you.

Cons

While this is a Fortune 500 company, multiple Prudential Investment arm teams are overworked and don't have a great work culture. Senior management doesn't care much about employees' well-being and work-life balance. They expect you to work almost 7 days a week (for weeks and months) to meet their astronomical prediction to deliver complex effort. On top of that manager scolds the entire team for falling behind the timeline. Forget about saying thanks or acknowledging your hard work and sacrifices made by you/your family for working over the weekends/long nights. Bottomline: If looking for a new job, stay away from Investment House unless you can't find another job.
