Pros

good inventory of autos, very good rate of pay for sales

Cons

Far to much back stabbing. Manager must like you or you dont have a chance even if you sell more cars than senior sales people in your first month. Help to sale a car example once I had to pay for a chevrolet emblem for the front end of a pick up or lose the deal.

Pros

None, if you like to be lied to or if your into watching them fire every one that worked for the old owner and we are talking about almost 100 employees. They feel it was with just cause, the old employees were to close to the old owner, please.

Cons

You name it. Only insecure management/owners feel they need to bring in all their own people. A good management team can make it work with the employees they have. They are a numbers store and what you have done in the past for them counts for nothing. How much you kiss a$$ and what will will do for them right now is all that counts..

Pros

When you get to go home

Cons

HR is terrible. Don’t care about employees care more for the company owner. Even if your treated unfairly from co workers and management. They love to have everyone fired just to hire a new puppets that they can pull the strings. Very stressful environment, if numbers are not met each month don’t expect a day off. Snow days, you will be out there all day cleaning cars and trucks and their supposed to give you pay time but they don’t for that day. Make sure to dress warm or you’ll end up sick with an pneumonia and they expect you to be at work. Even if you were in the hospital they expect you back at work immediately. Other dealerships close for Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, 4th is July etc you’ll be working Only holidays that the sales Dept closes on is Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter that’s it. Your paid on a draw. No salary whatsoever. Don’t expect to be paid on overtime. When you sell cars whatever commission you make goes towards your draw and then if theirs anything left over you will get after taxes. A lot of favoritism from management if you want to get ahead make sure you sleep with managers doesn’t matter what the sex is. Work elsewhere if you can.
