Pros

MetLife overall has a great benefits package. The office is close to home. The people I work with are hard working people.

Cons

Be careful about the department you work in. Your happiness greatly depends on the leader of the individual orgnaization, and it greatly differs from one to the other. In the Sales, Group Benefit Sales orgnaization, it's a depressing place. Where under previous leadership we were appreciated, and happy, we are now unappreciated, and very unhappy. The leader told us, if we don't like it, then feel free to leave. Employees are viewed as disposable, even with 10+ years of service, and even though our job is a 2-3 year learning curve.
