Pros

-401k match program is good. -Profit Sharing (when available - generally around $1200-3000 yearly as a live bonus check -Great discounts on rentals & hotels

Cons

-truthfully too many list -Worklife balance isn't great (either work a lot of hours outside of your salaried position or get left behind for promotions/raises (when factored for the extra time you work - the salary comes to be less than the number) -Poor management who handle changes based on what State Farm and Progressive are doing (this includes YOUR pay raises) -Transparency in too many areas comes down to your supervisor "hearing things" around the water cooler so-to-speak -Burnout is real in the insurance industry, mainly due to the extraordinary high volume of case work in most departments. -You'll spend more time thinking about work and "tipping/calling" people than your own family. -Most people really aren't happy at GEICO regardless of what these ratings might indicate. -Not a con, but find suitable work. Insurance really isn't it for most people. *Imagine a pencil being sharpened to the eraser. Once used, it's replaced with another pencil to do the same work using more cost-effective graphene. That's GEICO!

Pros

Strong opportunities for career growth Many people are willing to mentor and support others without expecting anything in return Supportive culture, even from people who may not know you personally Increased focus on education and development, especially for leaders More company activities at the local office, which has been a welcome change Fun associate engagement opportunities like escape rooms, art activities, games, and food events So many opportunities for recognition

Cons

There are still some areas where the company appears to be rebuilding trust and confidence Change is noticeable and appreciated, but some improvements are still in progress Feedback has clearly helped shape recent changes, and it will be good to see that progress continue
