Pros

Big Company and stress free place to work.

Cons

Metlife promises that it will sponsor greencard for employees who are on work visa after 12 months working experience. But they will keep on delaying the process by telling all stupid reasons.. We need to beg managers/directors to fulfill the promise they made while hiring. It will take months to years for management to show mercy on us and initiate greencard process. It might be a good company for US citizens or Permanent residents, but if you are an employee on work visa then this is a nightmare company..Get ready for mental torture before you accept the offer..

Pros

Good work computers, good benefits, above average cafeteria food,

Cons

Employee performance is rated on a normal distribution instead of an individual basis, crippling bureaucracy stands in the way of any innovation, lots of incompetent people make their careers here because it is almost impossible to fire anyone, the "start-up culture" touted during my interviews is non-existent
