Pros

Decent benefits, they do a wonderful job of hiring amazing and talented people. I consider my colleagues as friends. The pay is typically on par or above the industry standard, but that comes at a cost to your overall well being.

Cons

They are completely process oriented and have no respect for the employee anymore. They do not believe that taking care of the employee results in better performance and customer service as well as retention. They want robots. There is no open door policy, if you make a suggestion to improve anything you are labeled as a complainer and will be passed on for any future promotion. If you have a voice you are told that you are replaceable and you can leave if you do not like how things are. Leadership is a joke, there is no support or motivation provided. You are expected to work well above 8 hour days but are never allowed to leave early because they expect you to answer phones. No work life balance. The job is stressful, but used to be tolerable because they at least cared about the employee. Now they only care about process and you never even get a pat on the back. Instead you get micromanaged and have your work not picked apart so they can provide feedback on the most juvenile things. No autonomy. They also under staff and have such a high turnover rate it's nearly impossible to get any of your earned time off approved. If you can handle stress to the point that you dream about work and have physical health issues, this company may be for you. You will never be caught up and will always be playing catch up no matter how good you are. They have heir workload designed that way.

Pros

I worked for Progressive IT a few years ago and have been at 3 different companies since with not one being able to compare to Progressive. I still tell people about how transparent and employee centric Progressive is. From the medical benefits to the health care clinic on site to the work itself. They allowed my career to literally launch as I started as a CSR and ended 7 years later with an important role in IT. I made life long friends and still connect with my former leadership.

Cons

Working for Progressive as my first career and corporate job spoiled me and made me think all companies act like Progressive. The bad need is once you leave it's virtually impossible to get back in. So if you get in, stay there!
