Pros

Hours, great co-workers, hourly pay for techs.

Cons

Scummy management, lame raises (if any), feels more and more like the company doesn't give a crap about the employees or vehicles, only their bonus and making more money for the investors.

Pros

None that I can really think of. The only ones that brings to mind is sometimes company paid lunch and can make a decent amount of money during "Tax Time."

Cons

-Working 50+ Hours a Week. -Yearly "Pay Enhancements" that lead into reduction on commission/bonuses and requiring you to produce more and work longer to make the same amount of money you did last year. -Limited career progression past Sales Advisor and promotions are only awarded to corporate Kool-Aid drinking drones. -Corporate leadership lies to customers and employees alike. -No work life balance. -Selling lemons and leasing broken cars to customers at a high price and high interest rate. -High default rate on loans and cars being returned because they broke down and the repairs were not covered by the "warranty." -Sales Advisors are scared of leasing and selling vehicles due to the fear of the car breaking down and losing a customer and losing the commission. -Most of a Sales Advisor's day is cold calling 60 calls a day, trying to sell cars, dealing with customer complaints, replacing dead car batteries and worrying about making enough money to support their family.
