Pros

My co-workers and Managers were great people to work with, everyone was willing to help. The office I worked in did a lot of volunteer work in the community.

Cons

Progressive always talked about work-life balance but it was all a front. The would increase workload and duties without approving overtime and it got to the point where a lot of the people including myself had to work off the clock to make sure our work got done or we would get written up. A good amount of the people I worked with were going to other insurance companies because of this.

Pros

My co-workers are like family; really great people work here! The benefits are wonderful and gainshare is a nice perk too.

Cons

Unfortunately, the pro's don't outweigh the cons. Stress and more stress, there are too many expectations and the objectives and workload are ridiculous. It's at a point where I don't care what they pay me, they can't pay me enough to continue to deal with the business side of the business. You feel replaceable and not valued. Business as usual.

Pros

You can expect at least a cost of living increase year over year. The company offers gainsharing with all employees at different levels which provides a nice end-of-year bonus in profitable years. Most of the non-management employees I worked with were great people and many of them became good friends of mine.

Cons

The politics at Progressive are as bad as I've ever seen or read about anywhere. Workloads are unreasonable, pay is below industry average and the company has a track record for unethical behavior including using private detectives to infiltrate a church group to spy on a couple suing the company in back in 2007 (don't believe me, just Google it). There were constantly changing standards for how claims should be handled and very poor communication of those changes down from the corporate to regional to local levels. If you're willing to brown-nose and get in good with the right people, you'll be set. If not, you're in trouble.
