Pros

Training is more than adequate Plenty of opportunity for advancement Fabulous benefits Flexiblity with scheduling and time off Forward thinking - many work from home and other flexible work arrangements available This company walks the walk - Progressive acts on what it says are its Core Values

Cons

Most people start at the bottom of the ladder - you have to pay your dues, which may mean working a less than desirable shift, or tedious phone job to start.

Pros

Can sometimes be flexible with schedule- very inconsistent though. Great coworkers Some great managers/leadership Benefits, 401K matching and tuition reimbursement available Work from home opportunities

Cons

Took away a lot of the exceptional benefits that made Progressive stand apart, limited coverage and raised premiums, took away short term disability. Was once very flexible with schedules, then became very unwillingly to bend. Even great managers are being forced to micromanage. I often felt that very few in management (including one step above my direct manager) knew my name. Very VERY numbers driven. Used to be very customer and employee centric, but changed to be more "cost effective." In becoming more cost effective, stopped training employees (and it shows), stopped allowing employees time off the phone (and it shows), stopped treating reps as part of the company and decision making and started treating reps just like phone-answering monkeys.

Pros

Flexible work schedule, Gainshare, open door policy, work from home opportunity. If you are willing to work hard and go "above and beyond" you are recognized and financially rewarded. My supervisors are awesome-they treat you as equals. Casual work enviorment-differences are embraced. Managemnt is constantly working on ways to make their employess happy. There are many "employee appreciation days" and fun contests. Close to home so I don't have to sit in highway traffic!

Cons

The health insurance. While its better than nothing it is not as good as it used to be. The payscale could be better...but the payscale in Tampa is horrible anyway so I am grateful that I make what I do. While the scheduling is flexible to a degree...its nearly impossible to get earlier hours. Makes it very difficult to be a working mom when I don't get home until 8:30 pm.
