Pros

great pay, amazing benefits, biggest 401k ive ever heard of (give 3 match 6 for a total of 9). free car, insurance, and gas make the job easy, flexible, very worth it.

Cons

Promotion process is really bad. The company politics are just brutal! There should be a much less subjective way to decide on promotions from positions. Most life time TMs have given up hope and are doing just enough not to get yelled at.

Pros

Company car and free gas

Cons

1. The managerial style of the district manager in Seattle is extremely petty, his reviews make no sense whatsoever, and there is a rampant culture of favoritism going on in his district. 2. The insistence on doing “work withs” for a person with high functioning Autism was absolute torture. Even though reasonable accommodations were requested by me, none were given. 3. The district manager also referred to me as in proper nouns that were derogatory and EXTREMELY offensive to someone with Autism numerous times. 4. The payout of bonuses were also extremely infrequent, even though I qualified for them. 5. Finally during the interview process, one of the biggest selling points that was made to me was a promise of a work life balance with “exemplary pay.” Neither of which came to fruition.
