A truly awful, morally bankrupt, shoddy organisation

Pros

They are now one of the largest motor groups in the UK - for better or worse!

Cons

Following the buyout of Inchcape Retail UK Ltd they took the axe to the organisation and 'assimilated' a once-great organisation into the viscous, back-stabbing, self-serving, ill-managed, heartless, morally bankrupt abomination that is Group 1 Automotive. Run invasively from the US, and forced to adopt US ways of working - including the propensity to treat people like cattle rather than human beings - the culture is adversarial and unpleasant. While the organisation asset-strips any and all acquisitions it makes, its people will be treated with distain and callous disregard for their humanity.
