Pros

Benefits (sick time, vacation, 401k, profit sharing, etc.), as well as promotional opportunities, especially from within the company if already hired. As well, the company is (financially) very stable and opportunites seem endless...

Cons

Downsides of GEICO? Unfortunately, there are many. Poor upper level management (not actual profit center managers, the supervisors/managers below them), lack of organization & communication from said managers. Basically, as long as you are doing well at GEICO - you'll stay off the radar. The moment something happens, or you make an honest mistake, you may find yourself without a job. Even those at the "top of their game" are not immune from poorly educated, (sometimes) mean spirited managers.

Pros

Fastest growing insurance company 6 years straight. Not one layoff in 75 years of existence. Great benefits and a tremendous opportunity for people lacking sales talent.

Cons

High call volume and very monotonous work. If you have had success in sales, you will be in for a rude awakening here. The top 10% in the Homeowner's sales department turn and burn calls. Calls are graded at critically high level.
