Pros

The pay is good and the corporate leadership intends well.

Cons

The pressure to sell creates an environment where your have to sacrifice your ethics. You are consistently told to sell with a "no matter how you do it get it done", attitude. When you do not you are fired. Teammates are forced to sell all recommendations to a customer whether they need it or not, when a customer complains they say that their instructions were never those. Then they ask managers to get rid of them or find an excuse to replace them.

Pros

Stable work - buses on the road every day, so tire service tends to be more predictable than some other retail work. Mechanical experience - You'll gain experience with heavy-duty vehicles, commercial tires, fleet operations, safety procedures, and potentially CDL-related skills. Physically demanding - Frequent lifting of tires, pushing heavy equipment, bending, kneeling, and working around large vehicles are regular parts of the job.

Cons

Repetitive labor - Much of the work involves mounting, balancing, and repairing large tires repeatedly throughout a shift. Safety risks - Working with heavy commercial tires and transit vehicles requires strict adherence to safety procedures and PPE requirements.
