Pros

No commute. Personally I'm there because it's located close to my home and outside DC. The benefits are good but they only give you 3 days sick leave.

Cons

You have to take FMLA anytime you need off for being sick or if your kids are sick. The dependability requirement is very hard to maintain because they only give you 3 days sick leave and this leave does not include having to take off if your kids are sick. Phone reps are scored on whats called A calls. This includes Customer interaction and Quality. The calls are monitored by other employees who know you. This is not anonymous. So if you don't have a good relationship with the people monitoring your calls there is a way they can sabotage you. It's very corrupt even when they say they are not there is no way to prove it.

Pros

The best reason to work at GEICO is job security. I never had to worry about losing my job during this recent recession.

Cons

The company's total compensation is weak, and therefore, turnover is very high. Management does not seem to care that good employees leave all the time. In addition, the company is not as 'progressive' as other companies in the same industry (pun intended).

Pros

Great support from management, very competitive salary and benefits. In depth training and continued support from the training department. Great support staff. Very open company in regards to information passed down to non-management personnel and feedback on both good decisions and mistakes.

Cons

Outdated claim systems compared to other insurers, but promises to replace/improve it. Some what compartmentalized regions, no (obvious) inter-region work being done to make workflow and training consistant.
