Prudential - Good place to start a career

Senior financial associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible work arrangements, multitude of businesses and opportunities, convenient locations, great people

Cons

Pay is below average in my opinion, hard to navigate a career around the company if you are unsure of what you want to do, Newark is a rough city I'm in a rotation program and the rotations are all very similar and limited in terms of skills acquired. Plus side would be exploring various business groups, but always using the same skills within each group limits professional growth.

Pros

I like that I am learning a great deal. My modeling skills have been sharpened and I have become adept at reading financial statements. They offer a decent vacation allowance and the pay is relatively acceptable. People are generally bright and it is good to be around people who are competent.

Cons

It is a three year program - and you are out. THere is little room for advancement. It is not a pleasant thought to know that you gave 3 years and will now be thrown out into a bad job market. By the third year the job gets boring and repetitive as higher level tasks are withheld.
