GEICO reviews

I got to a point where I was drinking myself into oblivion every night to forget that I had to wake up and do this job again and again and again. It took therapy and months of medication to finally realize that I needed to take the risk of moving on. The stress suffocates you, you are everyone’s enemy, and you are micromanaged beyond belief. It takes a very special/psychopathic breed to endure this for more than a few years, somehow I got to 5. The specific list of cons won’t hold any meaning to someone just casually looking over reviews before applying to this company, but for all current employees suffering and on the edge, they understand. Get in and get out. I did, and it is so unbelievably better.

I’ve worked at Geico for significantly more than 5 years. Company culture has shifted dramatically in the past two. There is NO work life balance anymore, the company has /spectacularly/ mismanaged entering the WFH and virtual adjusting realm. Even as an employee if I need to talk to a person in another department I’m regularly on hold for 15-45 minutes. I used to enjoy this job but it’s turned into a nightmare. Metrics are a constantly shifting moving target. Workloads are unreasonable and often you aren’t fairly compensated for OT. It’s extremely suspicious that there are so many, recent, very short 5 star reviews.
