Pros

Decent pay compared to other auto parts stores. Guaranteed overtime every week. Excellent co-workers. Good work/life balance. If you need a day off you are pretty much going to get it.

Cons

Commercial customers can be a pain, but that is to be expected at any auto parts store with a commercial department.

Pros

Decent working conditions. Decent open hours. Policy for everything. Hires minorities as well as females.Good training programs in house. Ability to defer costs of uniforms and shoes.

Cons

The store I work at has incompetent managers. There are 4 managers out of a total of 7 employees! The GM never comes to work, The RPP does no work and expects the sales staff to do his job while making 8.00 an hour. The low pay and mandatory part time hours make it not worth working for this company unless you are a full time manager. We have to install batteries in the blazing heat and receive no extra compensation. We have a lot of physically demanding work to do every day.

Pros

At the time I was a college student looking for a summer job, and this was perfect for me. It was set hours and better pay then most other young students my age were getting. It also told me what true hard work is and what it takes to be effective.

Cons

Very hot in the distribution center and the work is physically strenuous. I enjoyed it because I work out and played sports. It definitely put me in shape.
