There is no money left in car sales - Salesman Hendrick Automotive Group Employee Review

Pros

You are never alone in your misery. Free (awful until 3 years) health insurance.

Cons

Micromanagement by incompetent managers with unrealistic expectations and a total lack of comprehension of the state of the market or quality of sales leads. Fire and brimstone morning meetings which blame the sales staff for all the ills of the world. Worst pay plans in the state. No upward mobility - finance managers and sales managers are recruited from outside. And mind boggling turnover as a result of it all, which management does not care about. If you want to leave, good. They'll just waste more money training the next greenhorn who walks in the door rather than paying the people with company experience a little bit more in base salary.

Pros

Phenomenal culture Excellent sales training Run the way you want any company to be run. Invests heavily in their employees both in terms of a genuine desire for each employee to succeed as well as top tier benefits. Enable salespeople to sell honestly without fretting over percentages or profit KPIs by focusing on volume as the basis for commissions. Ample room to grow within the company and employees are encouraged very positively to strive for more.

Cons

Intense hours, but they're very up front about this going in, so it's no surprise or mystery. Having said that, as a divorced parent with 2 small children it's taken some adjusting for sure. They are extremely accommodating and understanding when it comes to family related issues, though.
