Pros

As a mechanic I enjoy working with the public on problems with their vehicles and the computer system at AAP are very up to date and make the work experience enjoyable.

Cons

Pay period every two weeks, no overtime payed, have to deal with irritated management when the performance of the store is not up to daily expectations. Bad communication with management and employees, their more concerned with the bonuses they receive when the store does well than their employees training.

Pros

The best parts are the relationships built with the customers and team members. Also the car is a great perk. Extensive online training and very helpful supervisors.

Cons

Ultimately, this is a corporate position and thinking inside the box is definitely required. Very long hours, extremely high expectations, low pay. Stock price takes precedence over all other concerns.
