GEICO

GEICO is very focused on developing its employees and offering them whatever tools are necessary to get the most out of their position. I had extensive exposure to top management and learned so much during my time in the Indianapolis office. I even got to meet Tony Nicely and the Gecko! We did a lot of fun intern outings as well, like scavenger hunts, Dave & Buster's, baseball games, and dinners. GEICO truly lives up to the values of the company, and everyone I met was amazing!

I had to work the 4th of July, and actual full-time employees have a good chance of working holidays. In addition, agents and supervisors have to work at least one weekend day all the time.

Employees also have to bid for schedules based on performance, so you could get stuck working really awful hours. It would be hard to have a work-life balance as a full-time employee, but the company really is great.

Give employees the day off on holidays.
