Pros

-Profit sharing -Benefits - Had to write 5 words...this should do it

Cons

First, I am almost positive that nearly all of the 4&5 star reviews on this site are "purchased reviews" to make the company look better. Just read them, and note how 4 or 5 great reviews are all back to back. They can't get people into their job fairs unless they counter the negative reviews out there. Second, I was a claims supervisor in Poway and I can say that the negative reviews are true. There is little "good" happening at Geico. After drinking the Kool-Aid for 10+ years I started realizing the grass isn't blue and the sky isn't green. Seriously, it's that bad! I felt brainwashed into believing that micromanaging my associates was normal. I was an angry and anxious person while there, and bought into the corporate abuse they required that I impose on the line adjusters. Once I woke up from the daze I knew I had to escape. I feel like I left a cult! I am not a bitter ex employee- I quit. I was moving up but my conscience got in the way. As bad as these reviews sound NOTHING comes close to describing the true environment inside Geico. Nepotism, retaliation, harassment- all exist in abundance. I left and took a job for less money but my new employer does not engage in or condone emotional abuse.

Pros

GEICO is one of the largest employers in my smaller town, so I've heard all the good, the bad, and the ugly. What a pleasant surprise it's been working here! There is so much intentional change to create a great employee experience and get the right team leaders in place. Highly recommend not putting too much weight into older negative comments if you're thinking about applying. I've been very happy with my salary, the benefits/time off, culture, and leadership (both locally and senior leaders). I feel like there's a lot of room to continue to grow my career here and I see the same opportunities for others.

Cons

Really nothing major that I can think of!

Pros

Interesting problems to work on. Good benefits. Decent pay.

Cons

Managers will gaslight you and upper leadership is constantly changing, so expect projects you're working on to be thrown out every 6 months. Many people burn out and quit after some time and are never back filled, so you'll be expected to take on their workload. Some of my colleagues were working 80 hour work weeks to keep up with the work load and yet told they were not performing well enough. There also wasn't much diversity.
