Pros
Great employee environment, stable company. GEICO has not had any layoffs in the last 30+ years, so stability is nice. Benefits are great - I left to join the Federal Gov't, and GEICO's benefits were superior. GEICO's HQ is in Chevy Chase, MD, which has tons of ammenities.
Cons
Cheap management, easy to get lost in the crowd, little room for advancement. There is little flexibility for work/life issues. Most departments are large, and they tend to promote from within, so you're constantly competing against coworkers for advancement. They're cheap - the building was built in the 1960's and is showing its age, but they keep refusing to redevelop their site.
