Pros

If I would have to say anything was a benefit it would be the Benefits, however the pay is nice but not for the area. Cafeteria options were great!

Cons

Downsides to working at Geico (fredericksburg): All your time has to be accounted for, need to use the bathroom? you have to ask for permission to clock out of the phone. Have work to do as soon as you get in, sorry but you have to wait for downtime, which is hard to come by if you work in Auto Claims like I did. Kids sick or need to be picked up? Don't think about it, it will count against you (dependability). Can't reach your supervisor if you need to call out? They'll fire you anyways if you left a message because you cant reach any supervisor because of your hours and no phone list. Get an "A" call that Tony Nicely (CEO) is listening in on wont save you either.

Move up quickly but stubborn management

Pros

Most of the people are extremely young and right out of college. You get to move up very quickly and gain a lot of experience and responsibility. A lot of face time with upper level management. Good place to work for a short amount of time.

Cons

Lower than market salaries, they promote on tenure not worthiness, and the executives are very old and set in their ways. They also care more about saving costs than their employees.
