Think twice about working as a Financial Advisor at MetLife - Recensione dipendente - Financial Advisor presso MetLife

Stressful work environment, operations is stuck in the stone ages in comparison to other financial firms and no support to help you succeed. You most likely will get put with a team where a senior team leader "helps" you get your foot in the door but really is just looking to rip you off. They most likely will give you leads where you have to do all the work and they take a big portion of the commission for the hard work you are doing. In terms of the products met offers you will have to sell a lot of insurance and annuities or you will not succeed - most likely in a unsuitable fashion for your clients. You will be pressured to sell insurance as a investment product when in many cases it is not the right thing to do. Lastly MetLife will make drastic changes every time their stock price drops (ie changing commission payout rates, getting rid of emphasis on investment planning, firing salaried employees to cut costs and focusing on products that make MetLife money regardless of what is right for the client)
