Pros
GEICO's work culture, particularly in the PPR department, has been an extremely supportive environment with the freedom to learn many of the internal applications as well as develop technical skills like SAS and R without any prior experience. This freedom is developed through project assignments that encourage independent experimentation and interpretation as well as team support to answer the multitude of company and industry specific questions that are impossible to know when coming straight out of college.
Cons
In the PPR department, there appears to be a lack of ethnic diversity, which makes it feel like a stereotypical office environment where there is one or two African American workers, a few internationals that went to college locally, and the rest being Caucasian. GEICO prides itself on being a "low cost provider" in insurance, which is obvious in the office aesthetics and reactive approach to building maintenance. Also, during travel, there is an extremely limited amount of money allocated for daily meals, which apparently assumes you'll eat fast food every day and not tip your waiters/waitresses.
