Pros

Nice facilities, good benefits, decent work/life balance, pay usually above market.

Cons

Constant reorganization, little opportunity for advancement for those below VP level. Month after month, year after year, I watched talented, hard working colleagues have their jobs eliminated, often being encouraged to reapply for lesser jobs in the name of “organizational optimization.” Managers (VP level and above) are usually insulated from this, and are able to use layoffs to cover for their own strategic failures.

Pros

The culture and the way Pru treats it's employees is wonderful. They vet their hires thorougly, so you rarely find anyone that is not terrific in their role. Their benefits are also great.

Cons

Current AI adaptation has sent the tech side of the organization into a bit of a spin, as it has in almost all organizations. Due to that, some reorganization have been occurring, and many very talented leaders have been laid off. But the focus remains on the customer always, and no doubt these changes will level off soon.
