Dow Jones Description

The name GEICO stands for Government Employees Insurance Company. When GEICO was founded in 1936, its first customers were government employees and military personnel. Founder Leo Goodwin went into business determined that he could deliver automobile insurance at reduced prices by selecting prime customer groups and marketing directly to them. He succeeded, and more than 70 years later, GEICO continues to find ways to manage its business costs in order to offer savings to customers today. In doing so, GEICO has become the fastest-growing major auto insurer in the U.S., insuring more than 13 million vehicles. GEICO continues to do what it does best ... to offer excellent coverage at low prices and to provide outstanding customer service. GEICO's stellar service reputation is the result of the more than 22,000 associates who exemplify one of GEICO's primary operating principles: Be fanatics for outstanding customer service! In much the same way that GEICO respects and is committed to its customers, GEICO is also committed to its associates. With outstanding benefits, excellent training, and ample growth opportunities for all associates, GEICO offers the support you need to build the career you want.
