Pros

They have an excellent adoption reimbursement expense program if you are adopting a child and 3 days of company all expenses paid training at the main headquarters. Profit sharing bonus is nice. Good health insurance benefits.

Cons

Very low work standards for the lower level legal management as there is no supervision which allows them to perform more personal work than GEICO work. The client surveys do not tell the whole story as the client(s) are just happy the case is over and does not want to "rock the boat" (i.e. if the attorney was late for a hearing or meeting 1 time or taking personal calls during a meeting) if services are needed in the future. You are given sick time but you are penalized for taking it due to dependability rating. Overall horrible work experience with low work standards for the lower level managers. I was hardworking, taking MY job seriously to give the clients 150% so hopefully they did not worry too much and with a very low open case count. I wasn't appreciated for my talents and what I could do for the company.

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.
