Pros

You'll get a lot of experience you can sell to other employers. I never had trouble taking time off for vacation or going to a doctor. Everyone aside from upper management are amazing people. This includes the odd fact that middle-management was great, which is very uncommon in my experience. Some jobs are fulltime work from home.

Cons

Executive Leadership: A new CEO was brought in two years ago from Berkshire. He had never worked at the company and his background is that of an investment banker not a CEO. This has resulted in a lot of layoffs to make balance sheets look better. The people who weren't laid off quit in droves. The pay was always a little low, but the stability is gone so its no longer worth working at GEICO. The workload will be too much to stay on top 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.
