Pros

The pay is decent for an entry level job. They also promote a lot from within. Benefits are very solid. Training is extensive.

Cons

EVERYTHING is micromanaged - metrics for every aspect of your job. And being graded for your calls, while understandable, for many people makes you MORE apt to make a mistake. Additionally, training is thorough but does NOT prepare you for life on the phones. Lastly, in order to move up or around, you need to be proficient in your job, but the dumb metrics they use for everything makes that nearly impossible for many associates.

Pros

Decent pay and remote work.

Cons

Poor management at all levels, and high turnover in the IT department. Profit sharing was initially offered when I started in 2013 but disappeared after covid. Management laid off most of the IT staff that had the technical and insurance knowledge in favor of bringing in new staff to transition GEICO into a tech company. Not sure what the status of the IT department is in 2026.
