Pros

Part time hours was great, no Sundays or nights. Was back up CPP and could run any store better than most GM. Part availability was great and part brand names are better than most.

Cons

The CEO Darren Jackson knew nothing about how to run that kind of company. You can't trust most upper level management. Was forced to a Part Time position and had to give up 3 weeks of vacation accrued while a full time employer and over 100 hours of sick time just because I was no longer flexible due to other obligations. Last manager I worked for was very rude and accused myself and other employees of stealing and I was told either to quit or be terminated and be arrested. No proof was ever given to myself. Just her word. Be careful and watch your back when doing refunds and inventory paperwork

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.
