Expect major layoffs this year. All the areas going through "transformation" like cfo, ops, and brand are planning to offshore roles or replace with AI. ETX was the test case before rollout to other areas. They have reduction in US headcount as a... — read more

Welp, fake glassdoor reviews are popping up
It seems someone(s) at MM hates the idea of people writing in earnest about their experience and has been posting most recently fake 5 star reviews. You can tell because no one write that way naturally. Are they utilizing Copilot for this? Have they... — read more

Layoff in America and hire offshore resources is the new norm at massmutual
They want to move all technical jobs offshore and just have management sit onsite, recent layoffs clearly state the same. Total injustice to Americans by an American company
Enfield & Springfield Campus
Looks like Enfield finally sold and now there is news of residential mix use for that location. For Springfield, there appears to be no movement with Baystate on the parcels there. Wonder if they backed out.
Hybrid Guidelines
The guidelines are ridiculous. The new restrictions are making MM a less than desirable company and there is no longer work/life balance. So much for being a great company for working moms. If people just came in three days a weeks, none of these new... — read more

Stealth Layoffs
Hearing that there's been some stealth layoffs in ETX lately. Small changes to get rid of people working on something right before a change in strategy or focus. Lot of changes recently.....none of it publicly announced.
Legal Woes
Just do a quick google search for all the lawsuits MM has been hit with. Perhaps that may be reason 1 of many for the layoffs that keep happening. Example: Employee Retirement Income Security Act violation, Failure to Monitor Fiduciaries, Some... — read more

MM used to be a proud American company
When a company chooses to outsource 90% of their work force and keep only management on shore, it should no longer be considered an American company. Unfortunately the current leadership is leading this company into this hole with no regard to the... — read more
