Pros

If you are reading this and you haven’t applied or accepted a position you can avoid this place… that’s a pro.

Cons

The new CISO has laid off like 30 people in 6 months. He is creating a toxic culture based on fear. He sits on staff meetings staring at his phone or looking very disinterested. Who hired this guy? Is this what you wanted?

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.
