Pros

Good and fair company to work for as long as you are willing to contribute. Many opportunities to grow and advance as well as the pride associated with working for a successful and growing company.

Cons

While no company is perfect - Group 1 is better than most. You will not be happy working here if you are not willing to apply yourself and meet challenges associated with a dynamic, changing workplace and business environment.

Pros

Have not seen any pros yet.

Cons

They work all employees like animals, push, push, push. Looking for only volume out of the technicians. You would never think this is a high end BMW dealership.....if BMW in Germany ever knew? Oh yes they don't pay overtime even when you are on a 45hr plus schedule, they alter your time card. The SC labor department is going to love that. Big turnover in all areas.
