Pros

They will pay for you to get your license. Once you get it, run like hell to another insurance company. The only legal sweatshop in America.

Cons

New employees no longer get a pension because the company is so cheap and greedy. The average raise is 75 cents per hour each year, provided you are not on a warning. It is an "at will" employment with GEICO, which means you can be fired for any reason at any time. They like to instill fear and intimidation with employees. Turnover is really high due to how they treat their employees. The goals they set are difficult to achieve so they don't have to pay you a raise. They like to hire new employees who make less to replace employees who have been there a while who make more money.

Pros

The concept of team work is very evident. We are blessed with caring and competent management at all levels. They truly believe "We are all in this Together". Very generous salary if you are willing to work hard. The feint of heart need not apply GEICO only wants the best. Many are called few are chosen. GEICO loves veterans, probably because they are accustomed to difficult tasks and stay focused on the task at hand, and did I mention team players.

Cons

They hire too many shall we say whiners who feel that the world owes them a living. This is a company where you must demonstrate your ability to be a self starter and hard worker. I hear from alot of ne'er do wells and incompetent lazy couch potatoes, who feel they rate a paycheck for showing up.
