MetLife Mess

Pros

Metlife is convenient for those who live in Northeast. It has a great cafeteria and great landscaping with park like atmosphere.

Cons

Everything is micro-managed. Only three sick days per year. Very low salaries and almost no raises. Dysfunctional managment without any skill and no training.

Pros

The benefits and pay were extremely competetive and the company spared no expense when it came to rewards dinners and sales contests. This is the perfect opportunity for someone that enjoys sales, but does not enjoy prospecting. Quote and close-the basic responsibilities.

Cons

As the department grows and continues to be successful, the fear of mergin with less successful departments dictates decisions. As a result, goals increase, pay goes down, and more regulation of activity comes into play. The corporate structure itself requires team members to follow the leader and to not do so, places a target on your back.

Pros

Benefit choices are great, but of course the cost is skyrocketing. Salaries are good and a yearly bonus based on performance is a plus.

Cons

Management is very secretive. Weekly meetings are held that discuss what was discussed the prior week. Limited opportunities to advance for existing associates. The Management positions are usually filled from outside the company. Or the job is posted when everyone already knows who will get the position.
