Pros

Excellent products. Excellent commission rates. MMLISI is a very good broker-dealer for securities business. MassMutual agents are not captive, so even if you work at a MassMutual office you can still submit business with other companies. (And if you do the business through ASH Brokerage, they even count somewhat towards your sales targets.)

Cons

Training programs are weak for new agents. Products are very high-end and are geared to experienced professionals and the wealthy. If you don't sell you don't get paid.

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Cared more about building a program to attract interns than future employees.

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
