Pros

Benefits. MetLife has a retirement plan that is vested in 3 years. The medical, vacation and 401K matching is all great. They also have generous packages when they layoff!

Cons

The senior management is in disconnect with its employees. Very weak in execution of any strategy, the execution is not thought thru. There is lot of reversing decisions that unsettles the rank and file. My experience is in IT and we have had situations where senior management has made some decisions that people find it difficult (or impossible!) to implement. The focus seems to be on cutting costs without realizing long term implications.
