Progressive Insurance reviews

Pay. I was hired at a base of $45k - 1 year later they bumped me up to $50k because they were having such high turn over (employees leaving to competitors). Come 2023 new hires were brought in at a start of $55k. The gainshare bonus everyone raved about was only about $5k. Split into 2 payments and taxed twice, a whopping extra $416 a month. Advancement is great if you only want to work claims or claims related departments for the rest of your life. You only work 6 or 7 different types of claim - doing about 12 a day M-W and then 9 or 10 T-F. Very bland, repetitive, high volume. You really have to work hard all week just to make sure Monday doesn't overwhelm you. Other than that there was no purpose or satisfaction I got from it. All-in-All if this is your first corporate job its great. If you've worked anywhere else and actually have made good money before it is not worth it. I got hired with State Farm a month after resigning and was hired at $70k a year.

Although remote work is amazing, critical learning experiences are missed by simply not being able to hear conversations of seasoned/senior employees. Answers to questions on how to manage different scenarios are delayed by the wait time on teams. The nature of the role is very fast paced and the workload can and likely will snowball. No two claims are the same. Despite the best efforts of training and the management team, it really becomes sink or swim, and assessing if it's the right role for you can happen weeks after training has started. If you have options, it's okay to bow out of this one. Offers or willingness to transfer departments really is up to management, and they'll lean on the "haven't been here for 6 months" reason to avoid accommodating. Turnover is high due to the complexity of claims stacking on top of each other.
