MetLife Compensation & Benefits
What People Are Saying About MetLife
-
Retirement Support: Retirement programs include a 401(k) with employer match alongside a company-funded pension for eligible U.S. roles, with an auxiliary match referenced for higher earners. This combination is described as uncommon and valuable among large U.S. employers.
-
Healthcare Strength: Health coverage spans company-paid and subsidized medical, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance, complemented by an EAP and no‑cost condition‑management programs (e.g., cancer care, diabetes, musculoskeletal, family‑building). These resources position core coverage and wellbeing supports as a standout element of the package.
-
Parental & Family Support: Time‑off and family programs include competitive PTO, paid parental leave (commonly cited at up to 8–10 weeks for eligible U.S. employees), and caregiving supports such as backup child and elder care and adoption assistance. Additional supports like family‑building services and resources for traveling nursing parents are also highlighted.
