Pros

I enjoyed my time at Progressive. Positive culture. LGBT friendly. Extremely diverse. DEI is a top priority. All managers I encountered, I believe truly cared about me and my development. Good benefits! PTO is very generous - accrued bi-weekly, maxing out at 300 hrs. if tenure is less than 5 years. No difficulty requesting time off unless around major holidays; such as, Thanksgiving - New Year. Great profit sharing at the end of the year. Opportunities for advancement are good if you want to stay in your current org; i.e. auto/claims, commercial, etc.; however, In my case I wanted to transition in to IT. That was difficult.

Cons

The nature of the job is tough of course as most customers are under a lot of stress and unfortunately, that energy is transferred to you. Also, high claim loads. causing work outside of normal hours and a lot of anxiety. This unfortunately, outweighed the good. I am a millennial who has only been in the workforce for approx. 8-10 years; however, I believe Progressive is the example of what we expect from an employer. If there were a way for me to transition out of claims, I would have stayed with Progressive thru retirement!

Pros

Work from home and flexible scheduling, can slide schedule up to two hours to accommodate appointments, etc.

Cons

Unrealistic claim volume, it ramps up slowly when you're in training and then you start getting so many claims you don't know what to do with them. Customer service is constantly preached, but it's not possible to return voicemails, texts and emails timely while managing 20 claims a day. They keep increasing volume, and you have to spend a minimum of 5 hours a week taking live calls, during which you cannot make any calls out on your own claims, and are required to work each claim you take a call on to it's fullest point, even when they are brand new and unassigned, taking you away from taking action on your own claims that could prevent calls. They are incorporating AI and digital tools that were intended to simplify the process and reduce phone time, but customers are upset and refuse to participate, which means claims are delayed awaiting digital statements, and then need more phone calls anyway. The expectations are outrageous.
