O'Reilly Auto Parts reviews

- Company is only concerned with stock prices; period. - Fear of layoffs in the near future are causing serious morale issues. - Projects and initiatives are rarely seen through to completion. - Teams mostly operate in silos; leading to major tech sprawl, and no standardization of hardware or software. - Cross team interactions are often adversarial. - Firefighting IT related issues is a good portion of your job; no matter which department within IT or your current title. - IT issues are commonly resolved in a rushed and haphazard way; usually with band-aid solutions and/or without knowing the root cause. - IT infrastructure is managed like they're in the 90s dot com era; build it now, get it working asap, and never look at it again - Out of fear it may stop working and no one will be able to fix it. - Constant distrust from management; especially if you are a remote worker - Leading to micromanagement and continuous, fine grained, time tracking. - A lot of self entitlement and battle of egos between IT "professionals". - No support from senior management. - No support from HR - Issues brought to HR are redirected back onto you.

Core values and culture are not always reflected from one city to the next. Underpaid compared to competition. Management knows there is an understaffing issue but can't get stores staffed correctly. Reduction of inventory and payroll while expecting sales growth out of 4434 is absurd. Years later and still facing the same problem to this day.
