Data analytics jobs

Narrator:

As a data analyst, finding a company that is truly data driven is like finding the perfect playground a place where your curiosity is the only limit to what you can achieve. Well, we are one of those data driven companies… we just happen to sell insurance… and our culture of data has driven us to become the nation’s third-largest auto insurer with the goal of becoming number one.

Blair:

There’s seriously so much data here.

Narrator:

What kind of data? Driving data for starters. We’re one of the pioneers in usage-based insurance - collecting data on how people actually drive to competitively price their rates. You might know her, she’s a fan of data too.

Alex:

Those savings messages? We don’t guess on those. That all comes from data.

Narrator:

With over 1,000 analysts throughout the company, you can be sure to find a home in the area of your expertise. There are actuarial analysts, marketing analysts, claims loss & product analysts

Rae:

We’re all using data to inform hundreds of decisions every single day.

Narrator:

With petabytes and petabytes of data, where do you even begin? A good start is with our data scientists, who are equipped to take all the unstructured data and turn it into usable information for every branch of the company.

Blair:

None of this happens in a vacuum, either.

Narrator:

Our Analyst Professional Group provides routes to your development by connecting analysts from all over Progressive, sharing techniques and results that benefit the entire analyst community. This community often partners with our Enterprise Data Solutions group to influence what new tools and investments are needed to create a competitive advantage. That competitive advantage impacts company performance… And when the company performs well, the impact is felt through our annual bonus program.

Alex:

Or, as we call it, Gainshare.

Rae:

Everyone shares in the success on every level.

Blair:

Narrator:

Impacted by data, influenced by you. Find a career here where you can exercise your curiosity, bring your whole self to work, and tackle what is unexpected and unconventional. See how far you can go with a career at Progressive.

Nicole:

If I were to describe the analyst's role, I would say in its simplest form, it is a job where you problem-solve every day.

Nicole:

I mean, like, in my mind, I'm CEO. But not really.

Nicole:

If I think about the work that I've done over the years, one of the projects that I'm most proud of is the work that I did during Hurricane Harvey.

Nicole:

I worked with my manager to predict what the costs would be for the hurricane. Harvey impacted thousands of people in Texas, and though I'm just looking at numbers, I feel like I helped them indirectly. So I think that's one of my proudest moments.

Nicole:

When I started, programming languages weren't as robust as they are today. And using some of the more advanced programming languages has helped us be more successful.

Nicole:

One of the things I like about Progressive is the support that the analysts get. We have this group. It's called the Analysts Professional Group. It allows all the analysts around the company to get together and to network at different events, so there's opportunities to learn about what the other analysts do in the company. It just helps you in your career.

Nicole:

I think Progressive's a extremely flexible company. They allow you to do things that you need to do. I just think Progressive offers a ton of things that many other companies don't.

Nicole:

For me, as an African-American woman, diversity is extremely important. And I think Progressive cares a ton about diversity. I felt comfortable bringing my authentic self to work every day. And I think Progressive digs a little bit deeper. It's not your everyday desk job. From the flexibility that the company has, to the collaboration that you'll do with your teams, to the training and developing that we have for every employee within the company, Progressive is just different. It's more than just the name of the company.

Nicole:

Just work here. You should.

Kiran:

Progressive Insurance is a huge organization and there is a massive amount of data. So if you just load all of that raw data into our servers and give access to the business leader, they wouldn't be able to understand what to do with that data. That's where business intelligence comes into play.

Kiran:

As a business intelligence developer, I act as a medium or a link between business and the data itself. We have both technical expertise and business expertise and the combination of these two; that's what makes this role pretty exciting and challenging as well.

Kiran:

In simple terms, business intelligence refers to tools, technologies and best practices to transform and present data in such a way that the data is easy to analyze by our business leaders to make informed decisions. When you join Progressive, you will get an opportunity to work with a diverse group of people from different backgrounds, different cultures who have different ideologies and perspectives. So our team consists of a mixture of UI developers, front end developers, business intelligence developers, and there are QA analysts. I think the trust and the respect that Progressive gives to everybody's opinion is what surprised me.

Kiran:

Progressive Insurance offers tools and resources for you to be able to learn and become aware of the new technologies that are being used across the organization. And your managers and leaders are always there to mentor you throughout the journey and to reach your career goals.

Kiran:

I am always against this notion that these things have always been done in such a way, so you have to follow that process. Being able to help the organizations grow and become successful by utilizing the insights that we provide is what makes the whole business intelligence role very exciting and interesting for me.
