Pros

Great products and competitive pricing and underwriting for life insurance clients. Prudential partners with broker Crump, which allows advisors to shop with other insurance carriers to match client with the best product for their objectives.

Cons

Poor onboarding process, lack of transparency for commission structure compensation, slow technology applications and online portal, no base pay and solely commission based. Irvine office had one knowledgeable manager training a whole team of advisors only by 2 weekly hour zoom meetings; scheduling time with leadership was challenging and consistently interrupted even during meetings. Other companies offer a campus or zoom onboarding, Prudential did not have any structured onboarding training, and offered no mentorship, team culture, or diversity.

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.
