Svantaggi
- Executive management has lost touch of what MetLife has stood for, divested core businesses in the U.S. (Brighthouse Financial and MassMutual) - Work environment was too political, games being played by management and across geography. - In general, management is resistant to change, hesitant to adapt new technologies into improving existing processes. - Many teams are siloed. - Knowledge gap across hierarchy. (Senior management doesn't know what middle management is doing and middle management doesn't know what non-management employees do.) - Company-wide layoffs disguised as "Transformation" and "LEAN." - Almost no opportunity for career advancement, would rather hire externally than promote from within. - Promotions based on who you know rather than the work you do. - Internal systems occasionally down "for maintenance or updates" during peak business days. - Lots of smoke and mirrors.
