Thread regarding MetLife Inc. layoffs

Layoff Selection Process

Overall question: How does the layoff selection process work at MetLife?

  • Who typically makes the decision to cut someone?
  • How is the decision made?
  • Is the process about the same in each organization?
  • Is it budget driven?
  • Does top guy come up with a dollar amount and then pass it down the chain?

Post what you know.

Bad managers will continue to be protected. Upcoming Leaders Expectations Tool won't be the only or even a primary factor in their PDP rating. Please fill out the survey that we won't use. Pretty please.

Just remember the entitled executive culture of a VP lamenting on Yammer about not getting corporate tix for TS at the Stadium. Real world problems.
