MassMutual provides market-competitive salaries and generous incentive pay opportunities for all employees. Whether an employee is just starting out, transitioning to a new career, or joining us as a seasoned leader — we value their contributions.

• Competitive Salary and Bonus offerings: MassMutual’s base salaries reward and recognize employees’ experience, skills and performance. Our salary ranges are regularly benchmarked within our industry and the broader job market to ensure competitiveness. Additionally, all MassMutual employees have the opportunity to receive competitive, performance-based bonuses, either annually or more frequently.
   
• Annual Incentive Plan (AIP): AIP awards are discretionary and based on individual and company performance, with opportunities to earn above-target bonuses in years with exceptional results. These awards consider not only what results a person achieved, but how they achieved them, rewarding behaviors that help create a productive and welcoming work environment for everyone. 
   
  • Employees in sales roles participate in our variable incentive compensation (VIC) program instead of AIP. VIC provides incentive pay awards commensurate with results for individuals in roles that directly influence sales. 
     
• Pay transparency and pay equity: MassMutual publishes salary ranges in job postings and is committed to promoting pay equity. This includes providing pay equity training to managers, reviewing the pay of employees who perform similar work as a standard practice when making compensation recommendations, and partnering regularly with independent external experts to check our work.
   
• Benefits as part of Total Rewards: MassMutual invests in every aspect of their employees’ well-being, providing a rewards package that goes far beyond a paycheck to support them physically, mentally, and financially. Their robust healthcare, retirement and protection benefits provide a range of support through all of life’s big moments — and, over the years, they have expanded their pioneering leave programs so employees can better care for themselves and the people they love.
   
• Health benefits: MassMutual offers a comprehensive suite of health and wellness benefits, focusing on solutions that support holistic well-being, aimed at improving access and outcomes for all, and provide flexibility to meet our employees’ and their families’ unique needs. Employees value our wide array of benefits, with one sales assistant citing “great benefits and lots of flexibility,” and another employee describing the company’s “good leadership and benefits.” (MassMutual Careers Benefits; Glassdoor). In a 2026 employee survey, one employee noted “The organization offers a wide range of programs and benefits that meaningfully support employees and foster a positive, inclusive culture.”
   
• Retirement and financial benefits: MassMutual provides a 401(k) plan contribution of up to 10% of eligible compensation, including up to 5% company match on employee deferrals and, for all eligible employees, a 5% annual company contribution. The company also treats eligible student loan payments like 401(k) contributions for matching purposes. The company provides a Retiree Health Reimbursement Account to eligible employees; monthly credits start at age 45. (MassMutual Careers Benefits; MassMutual 2025 Annual Report)
   
• Additional health programs: MassMutual offers additional benefits such as a health savings account, access to a broad network of mental health resources and providers for employees and their family members, and resources like medical and surgery decision support, healthcare navigation services, and more. All employees also have access to a Well-Being Wallet, where they can be reimbursed for up to $1,250 per year for eligible physical, mental, or financial wellness related expenses.  
   
• Other benefits: Employees have access to an array of resources to help strengthen their overall well-being and protect the ones they love, at every stage of life. Whether growing their family, volunteering in their community, planning their legacy, or looking to save on everyday expenses like pet or auto insurance, we offer financial benefits and corporate discounts to help.
   
• Employee Feedback on Benefits: MassMutual conducts regular employee surveys, and benefits continuously receive positive feedback. In their 2026 survey, one employee said “...the total benefits program here at MassMutual has to be one of the best, if not the very best. It seems this company goes out of its way to make sure their employees are well taken care of." With another employee sharing “The Well-Being Wallet, education reimbursement, time off & leave programs are top notch and unlike anything I've experienced”.
   
• Time off & leaves: MassMutual’s flexible time-off and leave programs support employees’ well-being, help them care for loved ones, and balance personal priorities. Offerings include inclusive caregiver, bereavement, and other essential leaves; generous parental leave and financial support for adoption and surrogacy; up to 24 hours of paid volunteer time annually; and generous vacation, flexible holidays, companywide paid holidays and remote work weeks, and five “take care days.” 
   
• External signals:
  • Benefits value: Employees on external review sites regularly highlight benefits as a strength, with reviews calling out “excellent benefits,” “great benefits” and a “great benefits package.” (Glassdoor; Indeed)
  • Benefits and retention: Employees surveyed on external review sites rate MassMutual’s perks and benefits an A-, with 100% saying perks and benefits play a role in staying at the company. (Comparably)

Bottom line: MassMutual supports employee wellbeing through competitive  salaries and bonus opportunities, strong retirement contributions, and benefits designed to support the financial, physical, and mental well-being of employees and their families.
