Pros

I've worked at LKQ for 6 1/2 years and I love it. I ran my own yard for 26 years and due to health reasons I closed it up in 2009 and went to work for LKQ. No matter what you hear about LKQ being to big, to corporate, blah, blah, blah, they take very good care of their employees. Excellent benefits and I was off on medical for a while and the management was behind me 110%. The loyalty that they expressed, well you just don't find it like this in the work place anymore. I can't express my appreciation enough to this fine company.

Cons

can't think of any right now.

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
