Never mind that we... Laid off over 15% of our workforce since the start of the pandemic Are going to give you a raise that's less than the increase in inflation this past year Won't fully fund your AVIP... again Have more layoffs planned for... — read more
Executive Communication 12/1/2021 - Mandatory Vaxx Status
So its mandatory that you report your vaxx status TODAY (12/1/2021) and upload a picture of your card. Which of you anti-vaxxers are going to be letting MetLife know that you are too scared of a little needle because you think it will turn you into... — read more
Will the RTO be delayed?
There is no point in further endangering the lives of employees who are certainly much more productive while working in a better atmosphere, that is, when they are not in the office. Are there any insights into possibility of RTO being delayed?... — read more
All should test for COVID - RTO
Vaccinated can get and spread it. All should where masks. All should test weekly.
RTO - Vax or Test
It appears Metlife is making their own RTO rules. The general counsel and black leather jacket’s letter cited OSHA. As someone else wrote, OSHA doesn’t apply because of lawsuits. In true MetLife form…they got it wrong!!! Lol! “ The Occupational... — read more
MetLife Layoffs 2022
If the economy turns around, do you anticipate any MetLife layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?
1.5% raises, 6.2% inflation
Time to leave
MyVoice
Anyone else having fun filling out this cr-p? $20 says they never mention the results on LTL.
SLT in Palm Springs
Planning the next phase of their purpose at employees expense. How’s that 1.5%? And not 1 mention of all the reorganization and layoffs by CEO at his monthly infomercial broadcast.
GTO Transformation = Layoffs?
I know GOSC lost a lot of people this most recent round of layoffs. Anyone know if the Cary campus is going to get hit in the Q4 round?

Who has worked in Billing?
I started 6 months ago at Met working in Billing. For the most part I like my role, but using it as a stepping stone towards my larger goal. I think it could pay much more because I'm cross training to help out another team while also having my work... — read more
If you recently quit or laid off where did you land?
Dusting off my resume this weekend. Where did you go?
How many people are quitting in your departments?
I swear every day in my part of GTO another one bites the dust. Fidelity and Credit Suisse are recruiting hard in RTP right now.
Welcome to Q4 2021
Welcome to Q4 2021. What do you hear? What do you know?
Respect for “normal” working hours?
There’s been a lot of commentary from the EG about respecting normal business hours, with scheduling meetings and expecting deliverables… but the CFO has set a town hall meeting for 730am eastern. I’m not sure how having everyone signing on by 715... — read more
Regional HR layoffs rolling out
LATAM hit now. EMEA Q4.
What will you do when Met mandates the vax?
I'm vaccinated and just looking forward to the anti-vaxxer tears. How about you? I'm honestly hoping this will cause a bunch of middle/senior management to retire.
Is it bad that this makes me happy?
Just look at our stock, it's been going down consistently in the last week. We also lost in court yesterday, which makes me even happier. Those are the kinds of things that can get the upper management in trouble and even if it could affect me as... — read more
Best guess for actual RTO?
Personally I don't think October is happening. My best guess is Jan 3rd will be announced soon. What's your best guess or why do you think October will stick?
$20 minimum wage
A step in the right direction. Wonder what bonuses will look like this time.
Tone-deaf
How can the management announce it expects to see record sales this year a day after cutting more people? Talk about being tone-deaf. This creates a really dangerous precedent as well. If they're willing to cut people at a time when business is going... — read more
Severance?
Can somebody please share the details of their severance package from the latest layoff?
What areas and locations had a layoff?
Does anyone know which areas and locations got hit with a layoff? Was it Human Resources? Was Human Resources outsourced?
Today's LTL
Our leadership should just leave it at RTO has been postponed. The CDC provides conclusions more often than real-time data, and the company's attempts to interpret the "science" and data are not really helpful. So hey, how about those share... — read more
Let me get this straight
We don't have enough money to avoid laying people off, we don't have enough money to keep the brain drain from happening, we don't have enough money for proper raises, but we do have money for a share buyback? If you didn't realize before how little... — read more
Another $3b in buybacks announced today
How's that 1.5% treating you? https://finance.yahoo.com/news/metlife-announces-3-billion-share-201500416.html
US RTO Pushed Back to Tuesday October 12
Wonder if they were feeling the heat or if they just actually have half a functioning brain cell?
LTL Thursday
Think they'll address the layoffs last week? We already know they'll pass on RTO since that's "US only".
Last LTL. So Many New Jobs. In India.
Lots of new jobs in management this year. In India. Wake up. You’re being outsourced. Do you ever even LOOK at “Careers in Morion”?
How did they drive you away?
Of course they will do everything not to give severance pay and to make people quit on their own. Almost all companies do that. I am interested in your experiences, how did they get you to the breaking point to leave before getting cut and severance... — read more
People leaving in droves?
It amazes me that more people are not leaving Metlife as a result of the cuts that led to us being critically understaffed. The pressure and pace of work imposed on the survivors is so great now that I regret not being targeted by the layoff. The... — read more
Q3 layoffs have begun. More planned for Q4
Don't be surprised next Monday when you stop getting email replies from people in HR and USB next week. Q3 is nothing compared to the sl------r being planned for Q4. Winning the future!
CRT
Is now required learning! Inclusion Begins With Me. Pushing this sh$t = more exclusion Efu----gnough
Survey - how were the results in your area?
Let me guess… “not good”.
HR is next?
Is HR next to get cut as I have heard rumors from several people? It wouldn't surprise me at all.

You can't just ask us to trust you, Cynthia. This meeting is going great so far.
