Thread regarding MetLife Inc. layoffs

What is going on

More exits into the competitor. Everyday poaching to the competitor company from here by the former colleagues of MetLife. MetLife management not doing anything about it. A total shame.

AIG is a sinking ship. Massive layoffs, no job security for even veteran employees who dedicated their life to the company...selling off various business lines provides short-term cash influx, but leaves less assets...subleasing real estate leases to reduce expense (yet still increasing in-office days in 2025 by maximizing daily hoteling space)...no automatic raises or promotions, one actually has to formally apply to open jobs to get promoted...crying poverty and stiffing employees on bonuses despite meeting all expectations and doing the work of 2 people...not replacing workers who quit, but instead just increase the workload of those still at the company...executive management is focused on increasing short term stock price (until executive contract is up) instead of long-term viability...outsourcing more and more jobs to Accenture....relying more on AI for certain job functions...massive surveillance and monitoring of employees...can't even transfer one's own paycheck off the work computer to a flash drive...ceo has stated in published securities reports of his goal to reduce expenses by at least $100 million as an AIG Next initiative...cost cutting is prevalent whether it be layoffs, no raises, all the way down to empty office supply rooms, and cheap coffee

@dskr+1ugUC2dj you are right. Especially in US Tech. If you're not from India, you won't get hired. Look down the mgt chain.

What's driving this clamoring to hire former AIG and CRBG employees?

Is your significant other and ex-AIG or ex-CRBG?

Is there some super skill set that they have that we don't already have within MetLife?

Wake up and smell the roses. MetLife wants to hire as few employees in the US as possible. Think: "machine with cheap, interchangeable parts," not "superstars".

Some good resources laid off by AIG and sister company CRBG. MetLife management should pick up the exiting talent.

So our non-American CEO couldn't find time today to use co-pilot and send a 9/11 remembrance message to U.S. employees. This place is becoming more anti-American as each day passes.

MetLife AIG and corebridge are sc--wed up companies. Next time they go down the government should not bail them on public money just because some government employees have stake in this companies.

"Unfortunately folks laid off by AiG and Corebridge are not able to find job in MetLife. "

I don't agree with it, but I understand the logic.

MetLife is hiring as few American's as possible. American's are expensive.

They are hiring quite a bit in the rest of the world, especially where the wages are lower.

It's not about gender or race or anything about that. Just move as much as you can to lower cost areas.

It will eventually bite them.

Unfortunately folks laid off by AiG and Corebridge are not able to find job in MetLife. Meanwhile MetLife laid off workers get hired by AiG and Corebridge due to their influential friends. Cannot understand the logic and doesn’t treat like a fair treatment.

Any count of how many people (laid off) went to AIG and their sister company. Hearing more than 50 so far there could be more in the coming days. Somebody is making money through reference by bringing in useless laid off people from here.

AIG?! AIG?! You'd jump ship from a F60 to a F94? That's not stepping up, that's falling off the ladder.

Laid off employees are your friends at AIG and Corebridge asking you to apply for jobs and get you inside with a free give away ticket by laying of the existing employees.

People getting laid off in MetLife are being hired in another place by their friends who have left or fired by MetLife and have joined a competitor company. The competitor company is laying off their own employees to hire MetLife workers. What a pithy

People who are getting laid off and are running to join their friends in competitor company should be blocked from joining. It doesn’t matter either way as this is a piece of sh-t as well as competitors.

These guys have created a MetLife mess and they are going to companies like AIG it’s spin off and creating their own team and firing employees from those companies and bringing their friends from metlife who have been fired or will be fired. It is just getting ugly everyday.

Interesting to note that the exodus also includes talent that during their reign at MetLife, over promised and under delivered, created a mess with their so called "new gen" products.

Which competitor? and please don't say Willing. That's now Legal Plans which Met owns.

I have never seen a company so disinterested in how competitors work. Met also doesn’t care to fix internal problems. Just blame service for everything.
