Pluspunten
MetLife is a strong and stable financial services company, which is more than most people can say about financial services companies in general. Overall, employees are treated respectfully and work-life balance is pretty good. We've recently gone through rounds of layoffs, just like every other company, and I've been very impressed with how MetLife has handled the situation, with grace and dignity.
Minpunten
Being such a large company makes change difficult to implement in MetLife. Much of the infrastructure is older and business has been conducted more or less the same for years. Management has been trying to make changes to become a "decision-driven organization" but results have been varied. Only time will tell whether this latest change will last and change the way we do business.
