Advance Auto Parts reviews

Quality of workers not consistent. Some of our stores have terrible employees that don't care about anyone or anything. I feel like I got really lucky with my store. Pay is not worth it. Just be a driver. Drivers make minimum and only drive and shuffle parts around. Counterpeople make maybe $1-2 more on average, anything over $1 more is for those with very skilled and experienced backgrounds. Moving up is very difficult. Nothing to allow training into higher positions, you just have to do the job of the person above you on your own without increase in pay until that person leaves.

Little to no opportunity for advancement. Salary is a joke and yearly pay raises are typically around 1.5% (if you're lucky). Rarely do they pay out bonuses, and if they do, they typically won't pay out 100%. It is basically a known fact that they underpay and generally expect employees to stay about 2 years before they are over it and find something where the pay scale actually meets the level of work they complete.
