Pros

A good place to start out if you’re just looking for something out of college or a quick job while you’re looking for a career elsewhere. Paid training is pretty good. Most supervisors are understanding and relate well to associates. Flexible shifts and some work from home opportunities, if you qualify. Benefits are average for a company of its size and are minimally competitive.

Cons

Unrealistic goals that always change. Performance results are rarely issued regularly or are inaccurate because goals are always changing. Ratings we’re not made available prior to the last performance review period. Senior management does not communicate well with supervisors and associates resulting in poor mentoring and job dissatisfaction. Workload consistently increases because of high turnover and poor retention efforts of tenured associates. Company is not focused on its associates or customers which will lead to its further decline in coming years.

Pros

GEICO is one of the largest employers in my smaller town, so I've heard all the good, the bad, and the ugly. What a pleasant surprise it's been working here! There is so much intentional change to create a great employee experience and get the right team leaders in place. Highly recommend not putting too much weight into older negative comments if you're thinking about applying. I've been very happy with my salary, the benefits/time off, culture, and leadership (both locally and senior leaders). I feel like there's a lot of room to continue to grow my career here and I see the same opportunities for others.

Cons

Really nothing major that I can think of!

Pros

Interesting problems to work on. Good benefits. Decent pay.

Cons

Managers will gaslight you and upper leadership is constantly changing, so expect projects you're working on to be thrown out every 6 months. Many people burn out and quit after some time and are never back filled, so you'll be expected to take on their workload. Some of my colleagues were working 80 hour work weeks to keep up with the work load and yet told they were not performing well enough. There also wasn't much diversity.
