Disability claims adjuster here. Bosses want you out? They micromanage the cr-p out of you until you can't stand it anymore. They slow-walk approval of payments for benefits so that the claimant is calling you daily and taking up your day fielding... — read more 

Does "talent" even matter anymore? Seems like a lot of hiring is based on "check boxes" alone . Sad. Seems like we are paying for it.

Seems eerily quiet. What's going on?

Are we going to use AI to alleviate the horrible working conditions?

Talk amongst yourselves.

Thoughts on these? There's a conference too? Wow - we spend a lot of money on a lot of things. Unfortunately none of them being competitive salary.

Buckle up.

It's amazing how many people are still here because they haven't even tried to get a better opportunity believing that they won't be able to get it. Why not try at least? I think that just as they do not value anyone, they have unfortunately... — read more

Curious how todays announcement will transition down… step 1 reorganize, step 2 jobs?

I've come to regret working for this company. They made me leave with a bitter taste in my mouth. Training people to enable them to perform your job... how do you deal with it?

It's incredible that the management does not consider it important to replace people who left, at the very least those who added the most value. What do they think, how much longer can we work like this? I have given up hopes that my colleagues who... — read more

Personally, I have never before experienced so much pressure from a manager to fill out the survey. You?

I got offered a product role in Cary, that I was told will be frozen until Sept. is that accurate, any chance of exceptions or things unfreezing sooner? Thanks!

Talk amongst yourselves. CPR needed, the pulse is weak.

Heard there was a lot of changes in the senior level of HR. Heads rolling?

Unfortunately, I think there are a many of us who think it is.

With current economic conditions and company situation, folks at MetLife, are you going through any layoffs or any news ?

I've changed 4 jobs so far and I've never had such incompetent manager with inflated ego like I do here. It is becoming increasingly difficult to deal with him. Why does this company have such bad managers? (exceptions are rare)
