Pros

1-Unlike prison we actually are allowed to go home 2-Caferteria makes pretty good ribs 3-People think you have a good job

Cons

At least in prison they feed you....anyway in the beginning the geiko makes training awesome because they want you to turn down job offers elsewhere so that you are more likely to stay and drink the kool-aid. They say they will always be happy to answer your questions but I did'nt think that meant "find it in your book" with a smile on their face. Technically i guess they were more than happy to "answer" your question. When Geico says they are a low cost provider, they really mean that your getting paid WAYYY less than industry average, the chair your sitting on is as unstable as how you feel about working here, and every rep must find a way to not pay a claim based on technicality unless of course the person putting in a claim is named Justin Beiber. 15 minutes saves you 15% is based on Geico doing just that for the 1 out of 10 customers that actually gets into an accident. FYI Geico also saves 15% in addition to the customers savings Also your rated on a scale from 1-5. You need at least a 3 to keep your job which sounds reasonable. However, every year the goals go up so fast. What was a 4 rating last year is a 3 this year. I could go on and on but I will say one more thing..I am sick of hearing management saying "I never went to college and look at me now. I'm 2 pay grades above you. Excuse me I'm helping my favorite employee. You need to make an outbound call and receive an inbound at the same time..blah blah blah

Frustrating place to work

Pros

Profit sharing/401k, good starting place for those still in school.

Cons

Micro management, unrealistic workloads, the building feels like your working in a warehouse, the computer system is not user friendly and makes the job much more difficult.

Pros

Good benefits if you need them.

Cons

Sweat shop, it is a revolving door in every dept. people leaving left and right, which makes old workload stick around for others to deal with
