Pros

Pay is definitely competitive in the sector. Formerly: stability, training

Cons

Crazy micromanagement No communication from upper or lower management; you don't interact with a single person with any authority to change/improve your experience. Frequently changing expectations; as soon as you've adapted to the last performance package, they'll reinvent it. And backdate your performance using metrics you didn't know you were working for. Poor raises, bonuses; you've gotta be in the top 10% of your role to qualify Bad incentives; all quantity, no quality. No points or recognition given for being competent, just for grinding. No promotions for years

Pros

When I was hired my trainer told me the greatest part of working at GEICO is the people. I met so many fantastic coworkers and made many friends at this job.

Cons

I've worked in insurance for almost two decades. Never have I had an employer set goals, allow you to go months meeting or exceeding that goal only to say "oops nevermind we're changing how things work and now your getting downgraded and ranked lower than your peers for doing exactly what we told you to do." I've been with other companies who handled layoffs with integrity and kindness. GEICO laid people off with absolutely zero communication as to who was laid off or why or if there were more layoffs that just hadn't been announced. Many in my region were left waiting not knowing if their jobs were safe for almost 48hours before upper management decided to care and communicate that yes they were done axing people. The goals have changed at least 6 times maybe more in the 2023 year. They will make a goal, modify the goal, increase the goal, change the means by how the goal was measured over and over till you feel like you are losing your mind. As a supervisor I was left all alone to explain the assinine changes and help employees recalibrate yet again to their new reality. You are ranked against your peers nationwide as a number on a spreadsheet that is manipulated by upper management with no integrity.
