Pros
Where to begin about the pros of working at Crew Carwash? Because there are so many! First and foremost, the best part of working at Crew is the people. The people that work at Crew are some of the most hardworking and dedicated people I have ever had the pleasure to work with and meet. Some Managers and Support Team members have been with Crew for 10+ years, and I really think that says something about how the company treats their employees with kindness, respect, and fairness. Next up, the flexibility of scheduling is another great thing about Crew. We make our schedules three weeks in advance, so that gives employees enough time to enter in times that work best for them to work and request days off in case they have appointments that they need to take care of. I truly believe that this gives our employees the advantage of being on their A game when they are scheduled at the times that best works for them! Most of the time, these requests are met and taken into consideration. Furthermore, Crew is a family owned company that truly treats you like a family member. Whether you work at a Crew Carwash in an outer-market or the Indy area, you can connect with other Managers and employees and create an instant connection or friendship with one another. Alongside that, all problems and concerns are taken into account and taken seriously at Crew, just like a family. If there is ever a suggestion or a comment that needs to be addressed about work items, you feel comfortable enough to have that conversation with others. Personal topics can even be discussed. I, personally, have discussed personal things going on in my life with my Manager and have even asked them for advice on how to handle certain life situations! I think it's amazing that Crew can provide an environment that allows you feel comfortable to express both personal and work items. In addition, pay is very competitive at Crew. A high schooler, for their first job, can make $10 and can have bonuses and incentives on top of that! Full Time employees and Managers make a very competitive salary for the service industry as well. Last but not least, promotions are based on performance at Crew Carwash. Most companies base promotions and raises on how long a certain employee has been with a company, but not Crew! We truly value those employees who work hard and will compensate and promote those who do versus those who do the bare minimum. I think that is amazing and should always be the case.
Cons
The downsides of working at Crew Carwash are relevant to the service industry. Shifts can be shortened or lengthened based on the volume of cars being washed. This means that on a busy day you might be asked to stay for an extra hour or two, versus on a slower rainy day you might leave a shift an hour or two early, so it does kind of end up even in the end. Weather also plays a huge role in our business. Due to this, working in the extreme heat and extreme cold are necessary, but is not for everyone. However, Crew does it's best to keep everyone healthy and safe during extreme hot and cold temperatures by providing you with breaks and gear to keep you warm or cool depending on the season.
