Pros

The one thing they seem to get right is pay... more or less. I feel fairly compensated financially, also I currently get to work from home, that's worth quite a bit, but that's where the warm fuzzy stops.

Cons

How a phone center can be run like an Amazon warehouse is beyond me. I've gotten emails for being 7 seconds over on my break, but I'm expected to stay after my shift to answer any calls that squeaked in after hours. Took away 3 weeks of vacation and gave me PTO instead... said it was better for us, how is making me EARN what I've already EARNED all over again every year. Then when you request time off "Work Force Management" says Nope too many people already off. Several people I know are losing a week or more of vacation due to use it or lose it policy and they were not allowed to use it. Should be a lawsuit in there somewhere but I'm no legal expert. Been with the company 10 years. First 6 were run by people who understand automotive. This new batch of millennial's are more interested in "innovating" than they are at the core task of distributing tires... I mean after all it IS in the name.

Pros

Senior Leadership is transparent and provides visibility to all levels of what company strategy is, what challenges we have, and how we will move forward into the future. There are realistic plans in place to drive ATD into the future, Employees are treated as people and total well-being of employees including support to have time for their personal lives separate from professional is part of the culture. Employees embody company values and collaboration, respect, and excellence show up in how people get their work done. Innovation and new ways of doing things is valued - from data science, to continuous improvement, the company is leveraging technology and process improvement to win.

Cons

Leadership diversity is an opportunity -- ATD leaders are heavily male and white - opportunity to have more female leaders and leaders of color. Parental leave policy is not as generous as other organizations. Health insurance is tiered pricing based on your salary and can be somewhat costly depending on your salary and if you insure your entire family.
