Pluspunten
Great for corporate career. People who want to clock in and clock out in a very traditional corporate setting. Those who love comfort zones. People who don't like innovation.
Minpunten
No creativity, horrible leadership, disjointed teams, very convoluted/antiquated tech. Extremely political. No vision. Wasted resources on unimportant, mindless details. People spend hours in meetings talking about insignificant things. Leadership/executives/CEO are extremely political with no concern for the company or employees. They only really care about their own salary, bonus and titles. They cloak this in pretending to create a "ONE MetLife" but most execs and CEO have staged town hall meetings, no interaction with employees, and no interest in anything but their own egos. However, the people that are now being hired are, for the most part, submissive robots that drink the "MetLife Kool Aid". By the way, upper management prefers this because they have all the control. Whereas the employees they are literally firing in waves in the North East offices, who have tons of valuable industry knowledge and valid opinions on how things are going, are a flight risk to the CEO and his "cabinet" of money hungry minions. I am not one of their robots. I see what is happening and the agendas they have. It may be sustainable for a while for these execs because, let's face it, they're an old insurance company, so they will always have a consistent money flow. But for those of you who want a place who values their people and the products they produce and love a collaborative and innovative environment, DONT WORK AT METLIFE.
