Pros

Good pay relative to experience required. The best aspect of GEICO is that it forms a great stepping stone to a better company.

Cons

The worst and largest disconnect between upper management and lower management I've ever seen. You are a number. Plain and simple. You are replaceable, expendable, and will CONSTANTLY find that new and "exciting" changes are made to the company to F you just a little bit more every month. Profit sharing? Gone. But don't worry! We'll increase bonuses to compensate!... Well, not this year... But maybe in the future! 401k match? Not for 6 years of slavery, bucko. Flexibility? LOL. Here's a new app, it's going to tell you when, where, and how to be. What, you BELIEVED us about you managing your own schedule as an adjuster? HAH. Job security? Oh yeah, we've never laid anyone off. Never.... We just.. "Excessed" them. Yeah, that sounds good. Entire departments were "excessed" overnight with no warning. What do you mean it's the same as a layoff? No it isn't. We would never lay off thousands and thousands of people with no warning. We simply.. Reduced our workforce. Work life balance? We'll pay you for 7.75 hours.... But don't fall behind on the 30 claims we give you per day! Or that could hurt your metrics! And we'll need to get you back on track or we might need to consider lay-.. Excessing you. No overtime though. The pay is good. Not good enough to deal with the company. Get in, get licensed, get some experience you can draw from on your next job interview. Then get the hell out.

Pros

The compensation is relatively competitive. It's nice when you get a profit sharing check.

Cons

This is a corporation, so you're not going to change the dry company culture - it is what it is. It's a company where servile, logic-driven, corporate personalities thrive. I don't recommend it if you're an emotionally intelligent person or someone who tends to speak truth to power. I've watched many GEICO employees, who are morally and intellectually bankrupt people, ascend to managerial roles all because when someone asks them to jump, they know to say "Yes sir, how high?" If that's the type of job you want, go for it. If that's the only type of job you can get right now, I get it and I'm sorry for what's about to happen to you. If you're able to avoid working here, please do. Your mental health will thank you later.
