Progressive has been on a hiring spree for the past two years, mostly due to the roaring economy under the Trump administration.

In 2018, Progressive announced that it would hire more than 7,500 people “to support the growing needs of the business.” Most of those roles were IT, analyst, and hundreds of them were remote work roles.

In 2019, the company announced it would hire 10,000 people nationwide.
