Avantages
-Job security: If your manager likes you, you can literally do no wrong -Benefits: The 80/20 co-insurance and skyrocketing medical costs make it likely you will hit your out of pocket max EVERY year unless you have perfect health, but it's WAY better than what other companies in the area offer at entry level and you can get an HSA to cover planned medical costs tax free -Work space: The office has tons of art and is well laid out. Everyone gets their own desk. There are no ridiculous rules about what you can and can't have at your desk as long as you're getting work done.
Inconvénients
-No central control in management. There are countless tiny teams and each one has an entirely different culture and rules. Management's treatment of low-level employees can be downright abusive or downright favoritist, at the discretion of the individual manager, without limits. The only thing that matters to the corporate brass is "driving results," and everyone with half a brain knows metrics and results are different. Yet apparently they don't. -Constant force-feeding of culture. If I have to watch one more video where some talking head from Cleveland educates me on how wonderful my job is, I'll scream. Bravo, Progressive, for somehow manipulating OE survey to make things look a way they definitely are not. Until stress is managed with appropriate staffing, until work/life balance really exists, until the CEO actually visits his main locations and sees what is going on, your words ring untrue. I've been driven here to comment b/c at my site, even HR cannot be trusted with confidentiality.
