Pros

The monetary benefits and awards they provide is great. Every recognition here is monetary which no other company offers. The flexibility provided on work hours and extended support from the managers is what most women(mothers in specific) need to continue work and this is excellent in LKQ. Work life balance and culture is very good

Cons

Equal opportunity to women in leadership roles is an area to improve.
