Pros

Great benefits. Pay is ok.

Cons

Way to much change, way to much top down management. We are now filling out a spreadsheet of everything that we do all day long so that it can be tracked. Clicking a start/stop button for every task.

Pros

MetLife overall has a great culture where you will find people are easy to work with. If you are looking for career progression, opportunities are there if you seek them out. Hours are generally pretty good and there is generally good worklife balance. This is a place where you can grow professionally.

Cons

As with any large company, your experience will vary based on which team you are on and who your manager is. Junior or early career employees tend to be underpaid and there are many instances of people leaving to get a salary bump and later coming back. The company is quite large and has a great legacy, which means it isn't always the most nimble or open to taking strategic risks.

Great work environment, good hours, and decent benefits

Cons

Company is going through constant internal restructuring which leads to relocation and downsizing. Not much career growth.
