Pros

You get to meet some interesting people. Work sometimes feels rewarding. Easy to get the job.

Cons

Constantly having to lie to customers on the company's behalf. Pressured to make sales while understaffed. No work-life balance. Sub-par technicians and mechanics make days stressful. High turnover rate. Employees show up when they feel like it, with no disciplinary action. Almost no support from upper management. Wages are terrible. If you are thinking about working at Mavis Discount Tire, and you can apply anywhere else, do it. This company is a waste of your time.

I always had a very strong passionate love for fixing things and always working hard hands on with a lot of things so I went to trade school for 4 yrs obtained a degree in the automotive industry after attending Thomas A. Edision Technical / Vocational.

Cons

Some of the biggest cons for working for Mavis was the a lot of the staff members were not on a professional caliber enough to carry the position of title that a lot of these guys have.

Pros

Honestly, not many. As an entry-level person you can gain practical experience BUT don't allow yourself to adopt their sales or management philosophies which are a throw back to high pressure over selling rip off facilities that gives the industry a bad reputation

Cons

Poor treatment of employees is an understatement. This company is out to gouge the customer ever single step of the way, and they do that by putting pressure on us managers and technicians to sell products and services. They dont tell you to rip people off but they know you have to to hit numbers, it's like a big secret game. Fall below the target profit dollars and you will get multiple phone calls every day from upper management harassing you to hit your #'s, no questions asked and no excuses. You feel like your job is at risk every single day. Upper management for retail likes to "preach" to the masses but in practice expect you to do the worst things possible to hit numbers. They bought out a good company with TRUST as a motto and approach to the customer and completely destroyed that in ever way possible. Ultimately they will cash out just like the prior executives did. In the meantime it's a depressing and embarrassing place to work. Don't fool yourself for a minute thinking they care either, just like the top couple previous owners the current ones are in it for the money not the employees and certainly not the customers. Sadly it is time to look for a new company to work for. I don't want to be here anymore since it's become Mavis.
