Pros

1) Great work environment 2) Work with schedule 3) Honest company to work for 4) Feel important, though it is a big corporation 5) Goals are set and sought after, but they are reasonable. 6) Commended when doing a good job 7) Given dignity 8) Relatively easy to receive time off 9) If you know your stuff and work hard, ample opportunity to move up 10) First place of employment I have ever felt excited to go to everyday, and disappointed on days I'm not working.

Cons

The biggest challenge I find has nothing to do with the company, but yet with the industry. In the selling of automotive parts, customers expect the company representatives to have a certain level of knowledge. It is very challenging learning all that I feel I need to know in order to fulfill my job the way I want to. But then again, I am a perfectionist with my work.

Pros

It’s a pretty easy job, very fun people to work with. Hours as a driver are pretty consistent.

Cons

The pay isn’t great. It would be nice if the drivers were making at least $17 or $18 an hour. Also benefits don’t extend to health insurance only dental and vision if you are only considered part-time. Anybody that isn’t the GM, CPP, and RPP are considered part-time, regardless of the hours you get.
