Prudential Financial is based in Newark, New Jersey, United States. It began as The Widows and Orphans Friendly Society in 1875, and for a short time it was called the Prudential Friendly Society. For many years after 1877 it was known as the Prudential Insurance Company of America,[1] a name still widely in use. The company has constructed a number of buildings to house its offices in downtown in the Four Corners district.[2] In addition to its own offices, the corporation has financed large projects in the city, including Gateway Center and Prudential Center. Prudential has over 5,000 employees in the city.
