Pros

Flexibility in schedule, benefits, earning potential, upgraded technology, home office supplies provided. Make your own schedule. Timely expense reimbursements. Excellent on boarding process and training program. They roll out the red carpet for new hires.

Cons

Forecast driven, the needs of the employees are no longer a priority for the company every since Chip Perry left. They have been through 5 different CEO's, and have lost client trust. Tough product to sell because company is struggling with identity but continue to acquire other technology companies. No opportunity for advancement unless you are willing to uproot and move to another region.

Pros

Generally the benefits are good, but are declining. The head of CoxEnterprises believes in employee empowerment and benefits. The values of CEI are wonderful and the reason I stay.

Cons

Current leadership over AutoTrader (CAI) prioritizes profits over all else so we have reorganizations every year or so making it an unstable environment. The company is now run by Finance and HR, so you can imagine the culture.
