Pros

Progressive has a truly unique culture. The outstanding art collection is inspiring. The level of respect people have for each other is great, and the company is really focused on work/life balance. Plus the opportunity and support to grow and move around in the organization is a bonus. People here are proud to be here, proud of their work and not afraid to try new things. It's okay if it doesn't always work, as long as you learn from it and move on. There's a feeling of openess, where you can say what's on your mind and not be repimanded.

Cons

Business is doing so great right now - but insurance goes in cycles. As we get bigger and bigger there's more beauracracy and more division between units. Business leaders are exteremely busy and sometimes don't make time to communicate with employees, which is a key part of any organization's success. Some individual manager's style could be improved but that's the case at any company. Making change based on feedback seems to take quite a while, but at a corporate level, there are indeed a lot of people and issues that would need to be worked through before new things can be implemented.

Pros

In the past years (in a bit of a slump right now) the gainsharing program has been great. Lots of great technologies and smart people, though sometimes difficult to get access to and become accomplished in those technologies in any way to differentiate yourself.

Cons

Company is becoming increasingly bureaucratized and loosing much of that 'Progressive' feel it had not too long ago. Ever since firings in November, there's less of a feeling of devotion and fun amongst staff. We want the company to do well, but have less faith in that than in the past.
