AutoZone Sales Associate/Delivery Driver reviews

I worked my way "up" into a driver position delivering parts to shops. Most of our commercial customers were respectful but there is a lot of sexual harassment and no training on how to deal with it coming from customers while maintaining their business. It was stressful and I am glad I was able to leave Autozone for a job in my career field soon after the "promotion." Additionally, pay is not on target with experience. I was offered $8.01 an hour (at the time, minimum wage in Oregon being $8/hr) - an extra PENNY an hour for being fully fluent in Spanish, something I used every day. Another co-worker was making only $8 per hr and had 5 years of parts sales experience. The scheduling was horrible. We would often have 6-8 employees waiting around with nothing to do on truck day only for the truck to arrive late after all of the extra people were sent home and leaving the closing manager and sales person to unpack it all. No one ever had a consistent schedule week to week or month to month. We didn't even have rotating schedules. I was balancing this job with another job and it made it really difficult. There was no reason for the scheduling being wonky other than poor management. If you've worked here - the cheer, the phone conference calls, the pins, the chintzy awards for being good at what you do - these weren't the incentives I wanted. Give me a consistent schedule and cash bonuses and I won't forget my "5 on the Phone." The store managers would probably have a better shot at gaining satisfied employees if they weren't penalized for not having "spirit."
