      Pros

      The best reason to work for Advance is the people. The employees truly care about helping customers. Many of my employees have been with the company for over 10 years. They care about their jobs and want to provide excellent service.

      Cons

      The pay is very low at the management level. My income qualifies my children for state aid, and I've been with Advance for over 20 years.

      A great learning experience, but not an ideal career path.

      Pros

      I loved my immediate coworkers, and you will definitely learn a lot. Getting 20% off of car parts helps out when you need to fix your own ride too.

      Cons

      Upper management is pretty much worthless, and your pay is based off of how much product you sell, so you are pressured to push extra stuff onto customers, which I never liked doing.

      Overall the people are ok to work with but the pay in general sucks pretty bad.

      Pros

      I can't think of any.. It's just not a real job.. It's more of a hobby.. Pay is horrible so you can't make even a poverty levels wage... It's under that.

      Cons

      Bad pay, unrealistic goals, no such thing as a raise, if you live in a small town then they make sure you get paid minimum wage because according to them your cost of living is low so you don't need the extra pay.
