Progressive Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Great place to work. Flexibility. Many perks. I loved my coworkers and the open door policy."

"Very ethical insurance company for the most part, and does the right thing."

"Schedules are flexible, you get to allocate your 90 minute break as you wish. PTO and VTO is very easy to request. The downfall is you are required to work weekends. back to back calls, less than 30 seconds between. Lots of irate calls because of policy increases. Must have superb customer service and patience. Required to up-sell on every call. Work from home position."

"I've worked for Progressive insurance as a Claims Generalist Associate since July of 2018. Progressive is an ever-evolving highly competitive company that requires working hard and being successful independently. The company allows for a flexible work environment, including work from home options, and a rewarding gain share bonus at the end of the year!"

"I've worked for Progressive for just four months as a Contractor. While there I worked on a proprietary web site that used an application specific language(ASL) expressed as a well formed XML file. Although C# was used, it was used occasionally as a way to develop new ASL functionality."

"Worked for Progressive from 2018-2019 and love the culture and environment they've built. A lot of room for growth and development. The people there are their strongest asset."

"I loved working at Progressive. I felt that I was well trained for my position. I felt very supported by my team members and managers. I left the company because my project ended."

"This review only applies to the Progressive claims department. If you are unable to work 12-14hrs a day minimum for the first year then Progressive is not for you. The starting position is that of a file owner. The overall goal of file owners is to last long enough to get out of that position. Once you move out of that position then a regular 9hr day is very possible and Progressive is a good company to work for. However before that you are disposable."

"I worked for Progressive Insurance for 2 years before I moved to Georgia. I found the corporate culture very accommodating. It was easy to make friends. My relationship with my co-workers as well as my bosses were good. The benefits were good. Being a lead engineer, however, I ran into people who I believe were protective of the roles and very resistant to changes. Of course, that was understandable except that I expected management to step in and be more supportive by make a strong statement about our goal in that respect."

"I have worked for Progressive for approaching 15 years. They have strong ethical values and generally decent talent for an IT organization that is more than 3000 people in IT. They do suffer from process beauracracy and an inability to identify top talent. Some amongst the senior management ranks are very ineffective."

"Unfortunately Progressive was too big, bureaucratic and disorganized to be very effective in my position. The "development" position was at most 10% coding, the rest of the time was spent on a constantly-evolving SLA problem resolution system and a fervent desire to dramatically push down error rates that have been in effect for years. Training was virtually non-existent. This last part was the most frustrating for me. With proper training in what is a VERY complicated business (automobile insurance) I know I could have been an effective member of their team. Whether I would have wanted to be a "developer" there is another story, but I would have appreciated being given the tools and knowledge to not have my time there be a waste."

"Progressive Insurance is the worst job I have ever had in my 18 years of work experience. The coaches and supervisors lie about performance, listen to your phone calls and lie about what you did or didn't do. They let people graduate academy if they are liked by the coaches. They tell you your performance is poor but can't tell you how to fix it. They use metrics to evaluate performance but can't even break down how all the numbers add up. If your rep aux is over 19.5% you suck. And they threaten you with write-ups constantly. The coaches and supervisors speak poorly about employees and you can hear what they are saying. They are idiots at Progressive and should consider getting more professional, experienced or educated managers as coaches instead of promoting from within. And then the coaches lie for the managers and vice versa. You can't even socialize with your coworkers except during lunch. Very hostile and isolating environment to work in. Anyone that is planning on working for Progressive, go somewhere else. Don't make it a career. Worst place to work ever. Gainsharing isn't even worth working there. You get 8-16% bonus each year based on yearly salary and company profitability. Still not worth the hassle, stress and isolation by leadership. Good luck making friends, there's no point because you have to answer the phone every second of the day."

"I've worked at Progressive Insurance and found them to be a very negative company toward older workers.The pay was not great at all."

"Nice company to work with. Progressive is one of the US’s largest insurers. They are into Auto and Home Insurance services for individuals and one of the Fortune 100 largest companies."

"Progressive is a good company."
