Pros
I started working at MetLife as a temp and in less than three months I became a permanent employee. I don't mean to brag about myself, but I wanted the permanent position as soon as I stepped foot into the building. A fellow employee and myself were encouraged to apply, and low and behold we both became permanent employees. I must say, this company bleeds advancement and constantly rewards people that exhibits a drive and determination to more than what their job title entails them to do. Right now, my manager is encouraging me to take the LOMA and Series 26 test trying to help further my career in financial services.
Kontras
As far as i've seen, the only downside of the job that is internal would have to be the cafeteria. (haha) The taco salad needs to go!
