Good evening everyone wanted to check here to see if I could get some insight on a couple of firms. I’m looking to make a move and am being heavily recruited by Prudential in New York life. Would love anybody that could provide some insight on these firms and maybe share your experience with them

I’ll give you my perspective as an advisor at Pru. We are now on the LPL platform, they are our B/D. We utilize a combination of their technology for investments and ours for insurance and annuities. We have access to lots of companies to write insurance and annuities, but you aren’t required to do any amounts of any particular product or type of business. Teaming is encouraged but definitely not required. On the investment side we have access to all of LPL’s offerings and platforms. Lots of access to planning software. Some leads are provided. Overall they are a good company to work for but with anyone there are definitely hiccups that happen. Great retirement benefits as well. Let me know if you want to chat more.

Advice needed on handing in notice, I recently signed an offer letter and understand the screening process takes 4-6 weeks. I have a month's notice period and have agreed a preliminary start date in Feb.

I was planning on not handing my notice in until the checks had been completed so its all secured (not that I think I will fail any checks), but apparently I need a reference from my current employer not previous ones. Can't really do this without handing in notice can I?
