Pros
They're probably done with most of the laying off, though they don't seem to be hiring. Severance package was decent, but I ran out of it less than a year after being without a job. I learned a lot from MetLife and it was a great experience, but I also go to see things go from good to bad, so that kind of jaded my work experience especially being only 3 years out of college when I was let go. On to year two of looking for a job.
Cons
Things were great when I first started working at MetLife, you could work from home if you needed to with verbal permission from your supervisor and you could carry over 50 personal days from years before. Then with new executives got in, you could only carry over 15 personal days and you had to apply in writing to be able to work from home and you were most likely denied. Then the layoffs started, with people working from home permanently to be among the first to get axed. Also with the rumors flying about layoffs, morale was at an all time low since I had started. When I started working at MetLife, it was the best job I had had, by the time they laid me off, I was happy to go.
