Pros

The experience and knowledge I have gained from learning about the automotive industry has been great and helpful. Not only learning about the product we sell, but also getting to deal with the installers and sometimes learning from them on how to work on and fix my own and other's vehicle. Gaining knowledge from older employees, and young alike. Also learning from customers just how they want to be dealt with, taken care of, ( even the upset ones that we get ), every single one has helped me see all the different types of people there are that we deal with on a daily basis.

Cons

Not always getting the rotating schedule that use to be for managers and assistant managers. That was one of the perks we use to look foward to when we were working to get promoted. Even now that we have two assistants in our store, and in others......seems like the managers and DM managers seem to forget how much they use to enjoy that perk. They forget just how much we looked forward to it, and now seems like there is a reluctance to even try and make it happen. Sometimes the favortism we feel being show towards other employees can be hard also. Whether is always giving someone days and no nights to work. Not trading holidays from year to year.....it can all get a little tiring. Sometimes a little change, just to let the others see that there is some fairness for all can go a long way also.

Pros

The catalog system is easy to use and technology wise they are pretty up to date, very simple and convenient

Cons

The hours suck, the pay sucks. The company only cares about profit it’s no different from autozone, they are able to sell parts for less compared to Napa because they pay the employees barely above minimum, they don’t like giving raises no matter how hard your work you have to basically be a store manager or higher to get a good pay. They open more stores to make more profit and keep employees at the bare minimum. It sucks working there I think if your ISS, which is wholesale, you can make decent money with that because they give a bigger bonus from the amount of sales you make plus less responsibility and better hours but thats if a position opens up and you’ll probably be there 4 plus years until you can get that position unless you’re lucky and one opens up in the area.
