Pros

Great pay and job security in a volatile economy. The company has made an honest and effective effort to avoid layoffs by creating groups in overstaffed areas to handle tasks in understaffed areas of the country.

Cons

Interacting with customers that are dealing with the anxious and sometimes painful experience of a accident can be stressfull.

Pros

Good benefits. The new medical plan pays for a free physical, OBGYN visit for the ladies, and dentist visit for everyone on the plan once a year. Also, the 401(k) is 6% matched dollar for dollar and immediately vested. Corporate has recently allowed "flex scheduling," which allows variable scheduling as long as the employee is working 40 hours. I work four 9-hour days and a 4-hour half day on Friday, which is essentially a 3-day weekend. Also, the training is top notch.

Cons

Micromanagement is taken to the extreme. Raises are pitiful. Granted, I had my review during a recession and am happy to get any raise at all, but I expected at least a 3% cost of living increase, and didn't even get that. The company (at least the claims division) focuses on numbers WAY too much, and some of them aren't even attainable (such as having blown claims assigned, etc).

Pros

The money, benefits, and people you will work with. Good extensive training along with great facilities for training. The training you get here will be beneficial to take to other companies. The pay is competitive as are benefits until after the first year when they deny you a raise. Gainshare is slowly disappearing.

Cons

The people you work for. Management usually became managers because they kiss a** to get there and expect you to do the same. Very corporate atmosphere, they always know where you are at all times and what you are doing. Progressive doesnt not foster a very trustful atmosphere.
