Pros

A great place to obtain industry knowledge for insurance. GEICO is cutting-edge in the insurance industry, and there is a wealth of knowledge to be gained. The mentorship and leadership exposure provided in the Emerging Leaders program is second to none, and it provides a great launching platform for a career in project management, insurance, and operations management.

Cons

GEICO does a great job providing a foundation for learning and growth, but the flame can burn out after a few years. Many things about the company (salary action, workplace culture) are archaic. I would suggest this job as a great place to start, but once the well runs dry, you'll find exit opportunities that are much more fruitful.

Advice to Management

Award salary action based on accomplishment and performance. Treating people "fairly" does not mean "equally". In order for you to attract and retain millennial talent, you need to understand what is important to young workers. Do not let bad upper management continue to perpetuate a problem and assume their position at the expense of losing many line associates.
