Pros

Great training program and culture. Worked with some truly great people over 5 years. Learned a lot about management and maintenance that helped transition me to the next step in my career. If you excel they will move you up the ladder as fast as you can climb.

Cons

You can see job postings EVERYWHERE for Crew. That's because they simply can't retain good talent. There's a reason for that. Over my 5 years I worked at 8 DIFFERENT locations (3 locations I had 2 trips back to), yet somehow my raises and job performance was tied to the struggling location I was brought in to help. As soon as they got better, I was shipped back out. I got tired of being expected to miss or delay family plans because a high school associated decided to hang out with friends on a nice day. Salaried managers were taken advantage of. Expected to cover extra shifts consistently over hourly managers. Salaried managers were minimum of 50hr/wk but just like "pieces of flair", it's the minimum, and the minimum isn't the true expectation. Realistically average 55 with rain/snow weeks being around 45-50 and nice weeks being around 55-65 depending on staffing. To take off 9 consecutive days for vacation, you must use 7 vacation days. . . vs 5 typical of Mon-Fri jobs. Get used to monthly 5am meetings where you need to show up for 2-3 hours on your day off or expected to come back in at 2 to close the store. You are seen as easily replaceable at a lower cost. Next batter up mentality with management development, which is good for advancement opportunities, but bad for career opportunities. They will burn you out and replace you.

Thank you for your honest feedback. Just to make you aware, we have changed some things here at Crew Car Wash. The vacation topic you discussed has changed. Also, the only salaried manager at a location now is the General Manager. Operations Managers are now hourly. We are actually adding more managers per location to create a better work/life balance for our managers. All management members now work 45 hours a week as the standard and GM's 47.5 hours. We also have reduced the amount of times a manager is moved around.
