Pros

Challenging job day after day, stability, meeting Warren Buffet and Rick Perry, covered parking (if not already taken)

Cons

You may think the pay is good, then you experience what you have to do to get it. The job is literally like washing your car in the rain. Managers micro manage you and no one seems to have consistency in what the process is for handling claims, approaching your diary, customer service philosophy. The company is growing way too fast and needs to slow growth to provide the excellent service they seek and not break the backs of their employees. Many adjusters quit and just left notes during lunch time on their manager's desk, resigned, and/or stay on waiting for something better from another employer. Worst thing is that when someone quits their claims get absorbed across the floor, and the probably weren't doing the best job when they came to the conclusion they were going to quit, and this equals more work for you. If the above does not bother you this should; unless you take off 3 or more days your claims are not put on hold. This means you will continue to have work pile on when you are sick or out of the office and it is equivalent to be punished for taking time off. Beware this employer.

Pros

opportunity if you are young and naïve- they will let you work yourself to death & will never tell you enough is enough. todays favors are tomorrows obligations. Geico will train you but they teach you only what they want you to know- not real-life experiences. Geico likes to keep quiet their profit sharing- normally around 20% of your salary- given as a bonus in spring time. it is a good benefit- they wont give good raises but the profit sharing is nice. You will not get paid fairly for your overtime so it does help to compensate for all the overtime not paid for. Geico spent over 1 BILLION dollars in advertising last year.

Cons

managers are now only micromanagers- no ability to lead but will quick tell you want you did is wrong. new managers & supervisors have very little experience- again- only trained for what Geico wants them to do- they give them dreams of grandeur so they will do whatever the company wants them to do.
