MassMutual – “dont bother.”

Pros

Benefits are great. Allocated vacation time is wonderful. Employee services, ie bank, pharmacy, salon, gym, are located inside the building. well known name; everyone knows someone working at massmutual.

Cons

The annual review process is stress inducing and nonsensical. The guidelines are ambiguous. The gathering of solicited feedback on employees creates a popularity contest environment. Location is awful: crime-ridden neighborhood and broken streets. Thankfully, the company installed serious security measures to protect the employee and company property. HR mediates with bias- the outcomes are rarely in the employees favor. many senior managers are micro managers who lead by fear and intimidation.

Advice to Senior Management

be objective, selfless and appreciative. work hard to promote work/life balance. value your people with talent and recognize how hard they're working for you. understand that in order to expect respect, you have to be the first to show it.
