Pros

My experience at Progressive has been great so far. You're put into meaningful work right away, the coworkers are diverse and interesting, and the environment is welcoming. The perks available on campus such as a fitness center and health center are wonderful, and work/life balance is highly emphasized through things like flexible scheduling. The buildings and corporate art are amazing, and for a first job out of school, I have very little to complain about.

Cons

It's a big company, which means learning your way around can be difficult -- there are lots of very siloed departments and figuring out how they're related is a slow process. Likewise, there can be a lot of logistical overhead when getting situated in the new job. However, it seems well worth it so far.

Pros

Very open minded and experienced employees. Upper management is relate able and in tune with what happens with even the lowest level employee. Work that was completed felt like it was really making an impact on the company. Ethics and culture very awesome, working at HQ was very laid back and schedule/dress was very flexible. Great opportunities for education, further improvement through Discovery program.

Cons

Location is somewhat boring. Much like any corporate structure, sometimes things move slow. Not exactly the most advanced place for a programmer in the world.

Pros

Good pay, good benefits, good 401k match. Comfy office environment. Flexible work schedules. Nice facilities. OK coworkers. Beautiful art collection. Decent training program for IT.

Cons

No oppportunity to move around internally. Easier to look for jobs outside than find something different inside. Developers have no development responsibilities. Increasingly contract focused. About 10 years behind the rest of industry in project execution practices maturity.
