PGIM Reviews

Management is suspect, at least in the Systems group. You have a lot of people who have been there too long and are way too set in their ways. My group's manager was the one manager everyone respected, he was undoubtedly one of the better managers and one of the best people i've ever known. When he announced his retirement, I knew that was time for me to leave. That is how bad the rest of the management is. My direct manager on the other hand was not one of the better managers in the building. He spent a lot of his time drafting emails pointing out what others are not doing correctly, quick to take credit for others' work. He was very good at finding the next bus coming your way. He would often spend one on one meetings complaining about other people, people that I worked very closely with and considered my friends. Not the best way for a manager to behave. When he asked me to write procedural documents for ANOTHER group's process, that started my job search that day. There are some great people and managers at PGIM. If you're considering working there... REALLY REALLY vet the manager you'll be working with.

A mundane and boring environment, real lack of engagement with staff members from senior management, close to zero communication. HR - honestly I have never come across such unprofessional, crude and down right disrespectful HR members in my whole working career. For those who are in based in London and reading this - they all know which individual in particular is the worst. Managers have a real lack of training on how to actually manage staff and help with career progression / development. Never felt valued.
