Geico came to Katy in 2013 with about 20 employees and plans to grow rapidly. As the insurance giant gets set to celebrate the one-year anniversary of its West Houston headquarters along I-10, hundreds of more invitations to the office party might need to be sent to new employees.
Geico officials have announced they will add more the 300 jobs at its claims operation center at Mason Creek Corporate Park near the Grand Parkway. Interviews have already begun, officials said.
"It's simply so exciting to be here in the Katy area with the growth," said Tara Carthew, general manager of the Katy office. "I was just interviewing somebody who moved back here and they were amazed at the changes. I'm always seeing new buildings pop up. It's great to be at a company that's part of that here."
The 300-plus jobs coming to the Katy office will be entry-level and management development program positions with annual salaries ranging from the mid-$30,000s to the $40,000s, Carthew said.
