Pros

The one thing I love about being a part of the DriveTime family is the company's culture. Our culture is unique. DriveTime is about having fun, driving for results, collaboration and communication. Just as important to me is that DriveTime embraces me for who I am - I can "be myself." At DriveTime you do not have to worry about coming to work to try to be someone your not. DriveTime values each employee's diversity and experiences. We focus on ways to make employees' strengths stronger and their areas of opportunities strengths. Our company continues to get stronger because we have invested a lot in our employees’ professional and personal development. I enjoy my role each day because: - My team is my family. We execute and succeed as a whole. - My team’s success drives my success. - The level of collaboration and communication at all levels of the organization are unbelievably AWESOME! I know this is the second time I say this. - We have a voice – our feedback is heard - Compensation is in line with responsibilities and expectations. Great benefits! - The company embraces change. As soon as we’re “comfortable, we mix it up” - Innovative and trendsetter - GROWTH, GROWTH, and more GROWTH

Cons

If you’re not comfortable with daily feedback, this isn’t the company for you. Feedback although sometimes overused in our company, it is hardly ever misused. The other thing people struggle with is change. If you are not quick to adapt you will struggle at DriveTime. As a retail employee, the demands and expectations of the job are extremely high. The rewards and satisfaction of the job, however, far exceeds the demands. Almost every week I am reminded by a customer or employee why I come to work; it’s because they need me. If you’re looking for a 9-5 job with little satisfaction and a lot of work-life balance (whatever that means), DriveTime retail is not for you. Ownership - our company expects us to own our actions and career. If you like to wait on others you will be left behind. Own it and the sky is the limit.

Pros

Break room Covered work area good lighting

Cons

Deceptive Company policy that is hard to access (Need to create a case with HR to review policies that are not easily located). Management over work with little notice for demand of Overtime. Management Typically uses google search to base their decisions instead of consulting their diagnostic team. Over demand of core job responsibilities ( Doing more than what you agreed to do upon hire). If Something was missed or not performed a certain way management will stop your production to show what you did wrong with the expectation that you will still hit production targets. Management also tends to talk down instead of a coaching approach. If you happen to go above and beyond (which is hard to do) little rewards come your way ( Things that wont come). Typical work shifts consists of maintaining a pace that is hard to achieve to always hit targets even if several roadblocks are in the way that you cant avoid. Overall working here I found it difficult to effectively communicate with management or other co-workers. * Working here I have personally experienced Sexual harassment and sexual assault, I have informed management and have heard no update on that topic other than "talked to said employee". Then Said Employee's behavior changed and found it extremely difficult to perform duties.
