Pros

Team members are very nice.

Cons

Switching to a hybrid work setup, thinking it'd be the best of both worlds, really missed the mark for us. It's messed with everyone's work-life balance big time. People are wasting hours on the commute again, only to end up doing the same work they did at home. And that whole idea of boosting in-person collaboration? It's not happening. Half the time, folks are in the office just to hop on online meetings because others are still working remotely. It's like we're going through the motions of being in the office without any of the supposed benefits. Instead of making things better, it feels like we've taken a step back, making everyone wonder why we even bothered changing things up.

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

Decent pay and remote work.

Cons

Poor management at all levels, and high turnover in the IT department. Profit sharing was initially offered when I started in 2013 but disappeared after covid. Management laid off most of the IT staff that had the technical and insurance knowledge in favor of bringing in new staff to transition GEICO into a tech company. Not sure what the status of the IT department is in 2026.
