Pros

1. Prudential has many systems in place and available to the advisor who fits their platform precisely. Many more can be customized to accommodate some practices. 2. Full suite of benefits available to qualifying EE's. 3. Changing some of the old ways of doing things to allow for more modern technology and brokerage platform.

Cons

1. Minimal contract knowledge of Managers in various positions. 2. Rental and maintenance fees can be excessive once they begin to be billed according to the contract. Keep production high to avoid the bi-weekly commission drafts from eating away at your income. 3. Commissions begin relatively low for experienced advisors, however, they can become quite large with increased production.

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.
