Pros

Good benefits, potential for bonuses, company tries to improve culture.

Cons

Inconsistent execution of feedback, constant changes in management, departments not held accountable for errors, no real employee advocacy. Departments duties so divided that it's hard to have issues solved because departments aren't consistently in communication.

Pros

Good job for the most part. They try to make it a good place to work. Compared to other insurance companies, Progressive is pretty stable which has kept me around.

Cons

I would give up gainshare in a heartbeat to be hourly and get paid for the time I put in. I've always considered gainshare a short change overtime payment. The software we use definitely feels like it was built by the lowest bidder- PDS. If you go on etb (time off), it will take twice the time you took off to recover from it as your peers will be struggling to cover their job plus yours, so there will be much left to clean up.

Pros

Good benefits, Can schedule time off fairly easily if you have ETB/PTO, Gainshare aka profitsharing, gym on site, ability to possibly work from home, decent pay

Cons

Core values don't really apply (primarily integrity and golden rule) endless back to back calls, monotony, nonsensical metrics, mixed messages, contradictory information which equals double standards, attendance policy is inconsistent, Essentially your experience (positive or negative) there will be largely determined by which supervisor you have. Training is rushed to get you on the phones which is ironic as some of the goals are good customer service, reduce cost per call, etc... and this is largely counter productive to that. You quickly realize that nothing is ever good enough, even when your close rate is 40%, Turn over is tremendous due to misrepresentation, retracting promises, overbearing supervisors, and nonsensical expectations. When hired we were told so many people get hired because of growth, when the reality is turnover. Ranks up there with 2nd least favorite job for the reasons listed above. How can one "buy in" when this is the how things are done?
