I appreciate the leadership qualities of my boss whose focus was to get the job done in best possible way and to build great relationship in between team members to improve and utilize their best skills."

"I've worked in the underwriting department at GEICO for a little over a year and a half. The department has made changes recently in an attempt to employ Agile product development but does not abide by basic Agile principles such as letting those closest to a problem come up with the solutions. The work of analysts is only trusted if it complies with management's preconceived notions, undermining their claims that they want us to come up with innovative solutions. Compensation is below market value."

"GEICO is a very stable company but car insurance is not a high growth industry and GEICO is very frugal. Don't expect free coffee. That said, the people there are great and again, the job is very stable (almost like government job). It's a nice place to jump-start your career."

"STAY AWAY! Upper level officers micro-manage and most have absolutely no knowledge of your job duties. It is a very stressful environment and you are expected to work 7 days a week with no compensation, either monetary or days off. There is favoritism, nepotism, bullying running rampant and management looks the other way. They take care of their own. I had to leave because exhaustion and stress hospitalized me and was headed for major medical issues."

"Worked remotely from a consulting firm."

"I've worked for GEICO for five years, and there is an undeniable ability to move up and improve your earning potential quickly - if you work hard and want it. However, there are issues that lead to moral and ethical dilemmas, the same ones that almost every large company faces, that may be difficult for some people to get past. In addition, they are notorious for under-paying associates."
