    • Former Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. manager Rick Urso sued the company, executives and former sales representatives Thursday, claiming MetLife reneged on a $1 million severance agreement and instead made him into a public scapegoat.
    • The company is using Urso as a scapegoat, promoting or rewarding other managers who used similar sales techniques, Weinberg said.
      • “He was the No. 1 manager. He was a role model. His face was on the cover of brochures. Now they say they didn’t understand what his techniques and approach were?”
