Absolutely horrific

Pros

Profit Sharing, profit sharing, profit sharing and nothing more. I repeat profit sharing because they require 20 words for pros.

Cons

Treated like dirt, absolutely no one in management gives a damn about the employees, management doesn't staff enough because they are too cheap, office equipment sucks because they are too cheap, work load is beyond unmanageable, supervisors have absolutely no integrity whatsoever and abuse the employees under them, upper management lets the supervisors get away with treating the employees like scum and does absolutely nothing to stop it despite the numerous complaints. Geico is about being cheap, all they care about is lining their own pockets with their own bonuses and they do it at the expense of the employees and the customers. Geico is a corporation that runs like a dictatorship. They act like they want to help employees, but it is nothing but a show. They don't take any employee's feedback into consideration. Geico is the most horrible place to work.

Pros

Large organization so benefits were decent. The company offered several opportunities for volunteering. Cafeteria and gym on site. Cultural awareness and lots of diversity. Toastmasters group onsite with weekly meetings. Flexible hours starting as early as 5AM. Only 45 minutes allowed for lunch. Corporate office has easy access to trains. Carpools available from select areas. Nursing room available for nursing mothers. A nurse on site for medical emergencies.

Cons

Advancement was only made eligible to people who didn't challenge the way things were done or for people who didn't regularly exercise their own thoughts and opinions. Advancement was also targeted to people who came up through the ranks. If you joined mid-level in your career and you had experience working elsewhere doing the same job, advancement was not likely. Workspaces were very small but were made even smaller after I left. They do not have a flexible remote work policy and working remotely is solely at the manager's discretion. Training for skills related to job were not always encouraged and when asked to be trained on such things, there was no support from management unless they liked you. There was very clear favoritism so not everyone was afforded equal opportunity to thrive.

Pros

The pay was ok but that’s about it. I’m only writing the rest of this because Glassdoor requires a twenty word minimum.

Cons

Anxiety attacks. Filing for fmla for depression. Terrible management. Management wants you to do other tasks in between phone calls to learn things. The dallas office is the worst. They don’t take the time to take agents off phones to teach them new things. Promote people just because they a degree when those people don’t can’t preform their job well.
