Pros

Progressive gives new employees plenty of vacation time, and the unused days can be saved up from one year to the next. I didn't have any experience in my field when I started at Progressive, but they have a very thorough training program. Gainsharing allows all employees in the company to earn a bonus based on the performance of the company.

Cons

Claims is a difficult business.

Pros

stability, people are always getting into accidents, benefits are decent, time off is okay.

Cons

Job puts you in the middle, between the customer and management. Costs to settle are the most important thing, more important with the client. This leads to constant battle first between customers and the rep, then between the rep and management, then back and forth. Expected hours are insane, reps often suffer from burn out in the first two years. Senior guys place bets on the new people, and if they'll make it a year or not.

Pros

The work is rewarding. The people you work with are very nice. They buy us lunch a lot, that is nice.

Cons

No room for advancement or pay increases. It may just be Virginia, because I hear all the time about people in other places moving up or getting pay increases. But I'm now in my 4th year here and there has been only 1 opportunity for advancement. The pay scale use to be dependant on what you had learned and implemented, they called it "Pay for Performance” but now you get a holistic review and if you're considered a perfect claims rep, you can get paid 90% of what industry standard is for an average claims rep. This is an all or nothing process so literally, if you are not perfect, you will not be considered for any pay increases.
