Pros

Lots of great people to work with. Pension plan. 401K

Cons

If you have a manager that personally doesn’t like you, they will go out of their way to damage your reputation; some managers will damage the reputation’s of others even if that person doesn’t report to them. Sad thing is, these folks continue to get promoted. Those that are disrespectful to dealerships get promoted too. Sad but true.
