Pros

My Co-Workers and the overall benefits are decent. Profit sharing is NOT always awarded, but when it is I considered it to be back pay for all of the 1000 extra hours I put in with NO pay!!!

Cons

PIP managers are the most inexperienced and out of touch people. Most of them have never worked in PIP supervision let alone run a PIP desk before, but somehow they are all qualified to be a PIP Manager? An for the ones that might have worked a PIP desk/Supervise, it was so many years ago they certainly don't know the job now, nor do they care. The endless hours of work that must go into the job is like working in a sweatshop. If you want to get a decent rating for your work then you are required to work a 15 hour day (but you only get paid for 7.75 a day) 6 days a week and trust me you will still will not get through the work that is expected. I am personally an extremely hard working individual who has a very high work ethic standard and this job is a no win situation. Please note even though you accrue sick days, don't try to use it, or you will find yourself on written warning for going below the dependability ratio and it that happens you go onto written warning and you just lost any raise you thought you would be getting. So if you have no life outside of GEICO and you like extreme micro managing right down to how many squares are left on the toilet paper roll in the bathroom (because I am sure they have a spread sheet for that) this employer would be great for you.

Pros

Profit sharing and pension plan.

Cons

Upper management has no understanding of the amount of work each of their employees is stressed with. Unbelievable growth w/o properly staffing. Geico could care less about the families of their employees.

Pros

Good salary and flexible working hours once you reach Auto Damage Supervisor. Profit sharing is nice and is typically 17 or more percent of your salary every year.

Cons

Profit sharing is only paid after you have been there for a full year Jan to Dec. Management is very tight nit and they only hire people they like even if you have better education and more skills than others. GEICO only cares about your numbers and whether or not you've taken their selected seven core business classes.
