Pros

*Pay and your ability to negotiate as an external hire are better than most places *You are only expected to work 7 hrs and 45 min; clock-out time is on the dot and strict.

Cons

*Understaffed; multiple people are on medical leave due to the toxic work environment and the metrics system *Leadership is usually unprepared and inexperienced; there is a serious lack of understanding from leaders when you address inconsistencies in auditing. A lot of leaders score people's work inaccurately, and depending on whether your leaders like you, the appeal process is rarely honored. *there is hardly any overtime so many people work off the clock, even when addressing this with directors and HR- nothing will change. they will protect the company; everyone is aware that people are experiencing wage theft- no one does anything to change it out of fear of losing their job. * If you point out any discrepancies, you will be targeted-there is a consistent issue with retaliation at GEICO.

Pros

Quick interview process from submitting application to hire.

Cons

Way too many metrics that aren't shared while in training. Phone calls are to be under 5 minutes or else you'll get pulled off the phone and "coached" by your trainer. Numbers are everything there and if you don't meet the metrics you'll be pulled off the phone and sometimes off the floor. Supervisors will barge in your call and take over if you're taking too long on a call or if you use "negative language" like saying no, unfortunately, or sorry. In my experience these are all words people understand and appreciate when one is being upfront and honest. I recently submitted my 2 week notice and I'm counting down the days til this is OVER!
