Pros

As large corporations are concerned, Prudential ticks all the boxes related prestige and good reputation. Their work facilities are pleasant and comfortable and they offer decent pay and health benefits.

Cons

As large corporations are concerned, Prudential is typical (not in a good way), when it comes to career advancement, real inclusion and diversity across all organizational levels and hiring from within. Culturally, Prudential espouses "employee development" and "career advancement", but in reality does not demonstrate support of their employees when they try to accomplish this. Like most large companies, advancement is doled out to based on "who you know" and not necessarily "what you can offer". Over the last 12 months Prudential has changed (CEO) leadership and with that has come a slew of layoffs that most would agree could have been handled better.

Pros

They take you to lunch on your first day. Hybrid 2 days in the office, but I'm sure that will increase. The benefits & pay.

Cons

No training at all. You learn by failed case work and what other coworkers tell you. They expect you to do case work you have never processed before. If you fail too many cases, they put it against you and say your quality is bad. Train normally and the quality wouldn't be bad. If you continue to do "bad", they will just put you on phone calls every day to help rude and mean old people. Upwards of 40+ calls daily. They also don't put everyone on phones even though they say being on phones is an essential part of the job. They pick and choose their favorites to do casework and put everyone else on phones daily. Managers are useless and just sit in meetings all day and don't offer help, training, or guidance. Managers also provide snobby remarks when asking for clarification or help and answer back as if you are the dumbest person in the room and act as if you should already know the answer.
