      A leader in its industry with support from the Patriotic Act

      General manager trainee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Job stability, promotion from within, great people to work with. Copart is a leader for very good reasons. They have very knowledgeable and keen leaders who know the "in's and outs" of the auto industry. They have revolutionized the auto auction process and have the largest market share in the auto salvage business.

      Cons

      Constant surveillance of daily activities. Every job function you do has to abide by a specific set of criteria, which demises creativity. Lack of technological advances, computer terminals, and integration of applications for employees. Telephone first, email is last option and a pain to use. 80% of workforce is over 40years.

      Pros

      Friendly employees, very stable company with a unique niche in the salvage auction industry. Lots of potential here! 80% blue collar, 20% white collar -- they've been known to promote from within even across that boundary.

      Cons

      Ditto... 80% blue collar 20% white collar employer -- Half the health care options for twice the price. Medium pay.

      COPART - WORK HERE WITH EYES WIDE OPEN.

      Yard operations manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Job security - - - the field in which Copart operates is almost recession proof. Lay offs are almost unheard of . . . however, terminations are not. Copart operates over 125 yards world wide and is, more or less, the Wal-Mart of the auto salvage yard industry. Additonally, Copart continues to seek a competitive edge throught the development of technology. Advancement opportunities exists but may require relocating. Promotion from within the organization is encouraged. The coporate headquarters attempts to foster a family enviornment where everyone knows everyone and intra-regional assistance is easily accesible. Its not heaven but its a job.

      Cons

      Depending upon the region, management works long hours. 70+ hours are not unheard of. Turnover among hourly yard personnel can be extremely high. Salaries for managers below general manger do not compensate for the number of hours spent working. Promotions opportunites exists but nominations rest solely with the regional manager. If based uopn measurable performance it is done so fairly, however, most of the promotions I've witnessed within the region I was employed was based upon the personal preference of the regional manager. As was terminations. The morale of the yard is based upon the management style of its regional manager.
