Being a purpose-driven company is more than just words at MetLife, it’s our meaningful cause. Since 1868, we’ve stood by our employees, customers and communities during moments that matter most, and we deeply value being part of the support system that helps them navigate life’s twists and turns.

Our work and culture are fueled by empathy, and we stay dedicated to supporting the well-being of those around us. This is our guiding light, our north star, every single day. But don’t take our word for it, we invite you to see it firsthand.

Our purpose starts with care.

Our purpose is simple – always with you, building a more confident future. This means nurturing our employees’ well-being, supporting their loved ones, securing our customers’ financial future, and striving for a sustainable world through our programs and services. We’ve been dedicated to doing more while lending a helping hand, often in times of greatest need. And we intend to be there for the next generations to come.

Our commitment for over 155-years:

From honoring policies that lapsed because of the U.S. Panic in 1893; opening a milk room in 1912 for employees needing nutrients and special diets; to providing millions of dollars in relief between premium credits and direct contributions to help people cope with COVID-19, we take pride in being more than a financial services provider – our work is an embodiment of care. And we expanded that care globally in 2010 after acquiring American Life Insurance Company (Alico), making us the premier global life insurance and employee benefits company in over 60 countries.

Everyone gets something in life. No one leaves unscathed. It may be an illness, car accident, or any number of other issues. There is nothing like knowing you have the support of your family, friends, colleagues, community, medical team, and employer.

We’re taught to embrace change to grow and evolve. At the same time, MetLife never forgets the core purpose that has made us successful: to care about people.

We have an authentic and powerful ethos — we want to do right by the people and the communities we serve, even when no one is watching.

Fostering a Culture of Care

The Global Pandemic

For us, weathering the storm was extending care to employees, customers, and our communities, globally. Through initiatives like our BeWell programs, flexible work arrangements, monthly chats with our CEO and president, and giving our own medically trained team members paid leave to volunteer on the front lines of COVID-19, we're dedicated to finding ways to being a source of support.

Employee Benefits Study

For over two decades, we've conducted an annual U.S. Employee Benefit Trends Study that examines what workers want and how employers can respond meaningfully. Available for all to access, we share these insights to help other companies foster supportive work cultures, enhance the employee experience, and advance the understanding of diverse employee needs.

The MetLife Foundation

As we continue to grow, so too does our role in serving communities around the globe. Since its founding in 1976, MetLife Foundation has focused on driving inclusive economic mobility. In September, MetLife Foundation reached over $1 billion in giving – strengthening communities, with its financial health work reaching 17.3 million low- and moderate-income individuals in 42 markets.
