Overall this place has very good intentions. The MINI brand is by far the coolest in the industry!

Motoring advisor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The MINI brand is a fantastic product being owned by BMW. The Hendrick Automotive group has a very good reputation for being different than other car dealers and is slowly changing the minds of people and their opinions of car dealerships. They have really good benefits and good intentions for their employees. Very very easy to move up into management positions.

Cons

The amount of hours one spent working daily was not beneficial due to the amount of traffic the MINI brand has flowing currently and the amount of Motoring Advisors Hendrick wants to have on the floor. They could benefit from a rotating schedule so their employees don't get burned out quickly. Pay is ok, but should be adjusted to fit each brand. There is a lot of opportunity to make money, but you have to not want anything else but that in order to be successful.

Started out great but was way too stressful.

Sales

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Extremely clean and nice facilities. New building. Some of my fellow employees were very nice. Excellent product to sale. Very well organized. No shortage of product to sale.

Cons

Quotas of sales were too high based on the number of people walking into the dealership and way too many salespeople. Lots of disagreements between salesman because too many salespeople for too few customers. I was promised pay that I never got for going to Raleigh and other locations to pick up cars and bring to the dealership. Be careful if they promise you extra pay for moving cars around, because I never got it.

Great Company With Questionable Future

Sales consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Historically was a great place. Very strong benefits if grandfathered in. Good comp if in the right areas and you can sacrifice all time.

Cons

Sweeping salary reductions to increase corporate bottom line. Less family culture than that preached by Sr. and Exec. Management. Terrible work/life balance if you have or want a family. Sales consultants treated as quick expendable numbers. Constant in-your-face with execs big earnings and car collections while many struggle to make ends meet. Execs have great holidays, not others. Downhill since shifting CEO assignment to the once fired banking exec.
