Pros

If you’re in a stage of life where you want a steady job with decent benefits and minimal contribution at work then MetLife is the place for you. Just be sure to be a “Yes” man. Might get the right lessons to survive the old Corporate America

Cons

No respect for employees Serious lack of culture No innovation People managers with NO leadership skills or vision Politics, camps, calibration is fixed, my way or the highway all very common HR dept that is supposed to serve the internal customers - employees is probably the worst. Some of the most incompetent people work there Lack of growth opportunities or challenges - you are hired for one role and are expected to live out your career in that role Constant reorganization- High churn rate Even after a huge rebranding exercise, there is no sense of purpose or belonging

Pros

The job pays your bills. Some colleagues are great at what they do and quite supportive and professional.

Cons

Research management is micromanaging, passively aggressive, prescriptive. Unbalanced workload.
