Pros

Culture Training PTO HR Access to leadership Managers and trainers are very nice, Progressive is a nice company, this job is just too stressful.

Cons

Work life balance Amount of claims given Customer service experience Hours High stress career This is a very stressful position, it pays well, especially for people who are not used to having a salaried job or making a salary over the 40,000 range. But I would only recommend this job to someone who needs the stability and the money, then I’d encourage you to learn all you can about insurance and claims, determine what branch of insurance you want to branch out to then start applying for new jobs while you’re still in the training period. Or exceed in this position and branch off to another internal branch like commercial so you’re less customer facing and have the potential to have less claims but you have to be in this position for a year. I left and started a career as a underwriting tech. You will have irate customers, you will get yelled at by attorneys, you will have a HEAVY workload especially when people from your team quit. You will have to work on Saturday’s every once in a while.

Pros

Great company, great leadership and tons of room for growth. Great work life balance. Would never even consider leaving here.

Cons

Like any company, there are some negative people...and their attitudes spread quickly. Stay away from those people, and you will do fine.

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.
