Pros

As a mutual company, MassMutual operates for the benefit of its policy owners, not stockholders. They take a long term view and they have a good growth plan. Dividends have been paid year over year and the company is financially strong and well-rated.

Cons

As with many insurance carriers there have been numerous reorganizations through the years. Every time one happens management and staff are left with stopped projects and rework that is frustrating. There are many layers of management and competition for resources.

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
