Progressive Once Again Named One of the Best Places to Work in Northeast Ohio
MAYFIELD VILLAGE, Ohio--“If you are willing to stretch yourself, take a few risks and be even a little bit mobile, the sky is the limit here.”
“I don't know many places you can work 21 years and find a challenge and something new to learn.”
“I strongly believe that it is Progressive people, both on the front lines and behind the scenes, who drive our success.”
These are just a few of the comments made by Progressive people. The statements bear out what a great place it is to work, so it’s no wonder that The Progressive Group of Insurance Companies has been named one of the best places to work in Northeast Ohio for the seventh time in nine years by the Employers Resource Council (ERC), Northeast Ohio’s largest employers’ association. Each year, the ERC honors the best 99 employers in a 22-county region that have implemented outstanding programs and benefits that attract, retain and motivate top performers.
“Our success would not be possible if it weren’t for our people. They are simply remarkable – the best in the industry,” said Tricia Griffith, chief human resources officer, Progressive. “They work very hard for us, and we work very hard for them to make Progressive a great place to work.”
Companies pursuing the NorthCoast 99 award are evaluated on compensation and benefits, employee communication, community service, diversity, recruitment and selection, training and development, and workplace health and safety.
Progressive – also named one of “20 Great Companies for College Grads” by Fortune Magazine and Experience.com and one of Fortune’s “Most Admired Companies” – is currently seeking to fill 100 customer contact positions at its Cleveland and Mentor call centers.
