Pros

Decent pay Decent benefits Excellent opportunity for advancement, especially if mobile Decent training program Incentives for continuing education (SCLA, CPCU, etc.)

Cons

Good supervisors are hit or miss. This can weigh tremendously on performance as the workload could be considered to be high at times, but a good supervisor could make all the difference in a difficult work environment. The pay is a bit below average from what I have seen, but the opportunity to advance seems to be higher so it appears that its a trade-off. Outdated claims systems and equipment, only reasoning that is given is "low cost provider" I see a lot of complaints about the workload, which could be argued to be high, but the industry is all about priority and organization and I would have to say that the complaints may stem from a lack of efficiency. It is a sink or swim organization, but I do not feel that GEICO is to blame for that entirely, it is the nature of the industry.

Pros

GEICO is one of the largest employers in my smaller town, so I've heard all the good, the bad, and the ugly. What a pleasant surprise it's been working here! There is so much intentional change to create a great employee experience and get the right team leaders in place. Highly recommend not putting too much weight into older negative comments if you're thinking about applying. I've been very happy with my salary, the benefits/time off, culture, and leadership (both locally and senior leaders). I feel like there's a lot of room to continue to grow my career here and I see the same opportunities for others.

Cons

Really nothing major that I can think of!

Pros

Interesting problems to work on. Good benefits. Decent pay.

Cons

Managers will gaslight you and upper leadership is constantly changing, so expect projects you're working on to be thrown out every 6 months. Many people burn out and quit after some time and are never back filled, so you'll be expected to take on their workload. Some of my colleagues were working 80 hour work weeks to keep up with the work load and yet told they were not performing well enough. There also wasn't much diversity.
