Pros

Progressive was a great place to work. I heard it was very hard to get into but I was hard right away. There was a training class to get licensed for insurance and that was my golden ticket when I left. I felt like they really card about employees. The benefits were amazing from healthy cafeteria, a gym, bonuses , incentives, and tons of rallies & such.

Cons

They do monitor and record every call, the calls are then color coded according to different things. You would get “dinged” for having a moment of silence or pause, for not “asking for the sale” or sounding angry (even if you weren’t ). I did have sales quotas and during my employment I was going through a messy divorce which my ex was trying to take custody of our 3 children and he lived in another state- my brain was so fogged I couldn’t think. Because I wasn’t “happy” enough, my supervisor and I had many talks. I finally left and worked in an office at State Farm for better pay , hours, plus commissions. But I owe it to progressive. I would go back in a heartbeat.

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tired of the customers that are being abusive when corporates made bad decisions and these poor people have thousands withdrawn from an AI error.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
