Pros

My experience at Progressive has been great so far. You're put into meaningful work right away, the coworkers are diverse and interesting, and the environment is welcoming. The perks available on campus such as a fitness center and health center are wonderful, and work/life balance is highly emphasized through things like flexible scheduling. The buildings and corporate art are amazing, and for a first job out of school, I have very little to complain about.

Cons

It's a big company, which means learning your way around can be difficult -- there are lots of very siloed departments and figuring out how they're related is a slow process. Likewise, there can be a lot of logistical overhead when getting situated in the new job. However, it seems well worth it so far.

Pros

Work from home, Ok opportunities to learn more but opportunities are becoming slim.

Cons

Between Micromanagement, work overload and with the use of vendors and AI employees are at risk. Corporate seems to not care that were all tired of the customers that are being abusive when corporates made bad decisions and these poor people have thousands withdrawn from an AI error. Pay for this level of company and the increasing headaches is not good, no monthly bonus, no commissions. No pension. Health benefits are available but not affordable. And the undo stress is causing my peers to consider quiting even ones that been here over 10yrs
