Pros

Short commute to work, nice campus, and free parking. Used to have great benefits until they switched all employee health insurance plans to one high deductible plan with a $2500/$5000 deductible.

Cons

MassMutual used to be a great place to work with great benefits. Unfortunately things changed over the past few years. Current CEO is a number guy and doesn't appreciate the value of IT. CIO is taking IT down the drain with more layoffs and outsourcing. IT employee morale is at an all time low.

Pros

Some of the benefits are great.

Cons

There appears to be a significant issue with favoritism and conflicts of interest within certain areas of the organization. In some cases, close personal relationships between managers and employees seem to influence opportunities, recognition, and how people are treated. This creates a perception that being part of an inner circle is valued more than performance, accountability, and doing quality work. Employees who are not part of these groups can feel excluded, overlooked, or treated differently. There are also concerns about inconsistent standards, where certain individuals appear to have more flexibility or latitude than others.
