Pros

- team building game - kfc every month

Cons

I was being unreasonably PIP by them after working more than 5 years with them, one day they just suddenly told me i was slow in delivering and they will put me in PIP, like seriously, after 5 years? Why? i think this is the reason, because i was very diligently taking part in my professional exam and eventually got more and more increment year by year, they are not happy that they have to pay me more but i am still doing the scope for 1 person (tbh with all the OT, i already deliver the scope more than 1 pax), so they find funny excuse to get rid of me. Guess what, i eventually gotten an offer from competitor's company, and when they asked Prudential about my work performance, Prudential told them i am in PiP, I was like … why…what benefit can Pru get by sabotaging my future? After 2 years, i finally realize, this might be the reason, if i didn't get to join the competitor's company, Pru will threaten me in order for me to keep my job in Pru, i hv to take a paycut, then they can have a cheap slave to continue working for them. It all make sense to me now... I might be wrong, but i think it's worth sharing my journey to anyone who come across similar incident like me, just know that you are not alone, and never feel inferior about yourself, corporate culture can be unimaginably toxic, you will soar in a environment that suit you, nvr give up!

Pros

Solid benefits package, manageable workload. Can be a comfortable landing spot if you're able to tune out the outdated processes and legacy mindset.

Cons

The company undergoes frequent restructuring, and technical leadership often lacks the depth needed to guide modern engineering decisions. The culture can feel rooted in an older, more traditional mindset, and promising initiatives frequently get stuck in POC hell rather than reaching production. Career progression is also very manager-dependent; the wrong reporting relationship can significantly stall your growth. Overall technical bar is low — if you're trying to sharpen your skills, this environment may hold you back rather than push you forward.
