Pros

Salary, Benefits, vacation, most people you work with.

Cons

Upper managers are elitist and look down upon their employees (not all, but ALOT), If you don't have a certain pedigree, you will go nowhere. Managers are not trained, they all have huge weaknesses. Progressive tends to think that anyone with a MBA from a top school can manage people and that is not the case. Alot of disfunction. HR is horrible as well. They only listen to upper managers. Most people who have been at Progressive a long time get STUCK because you make good money, have good benefits, and good vacation, so it's hard to leave. But, after a while, that doesn't matter anymore because it will suck the life out of you. Upper managers don't care about your thoughts and ideas and really, don't care much about you. They are all on their own journey and they don't care about the people who help them make tons of money. The managers make a ton of money on the backs of everyone else. But, the good news is there is life outside of Progressive and it is great and liberating! ESCAPE WHILE YOU CAN!

Pros

Work from home, Ok opportunities to learn more but opportunities are becoming slim.

Cons

Between Micromanagement, work overload and with the use of vendors and AI employees are at risk. Corporate seems to not care that were all tired of the customers that are being abusive when corporates made bad decisions and these poor people have thousands withdrawn from an AI error. Pay for this level of company and the increasing headaches is not good, no monthly bonus, no commissions. No pension. Health benefits are available but not affordable. And the undo stress is causing my peers to consider quiting even ones that been here over 10yrs
