Lots of koolaid

Pros

Awful benefits and time off policy. Work with top dealers in the nation. It's a very well connected company which is great for networking and personal career growth. Cool office, fun environment, lots of opportunity for entry level employees.

Cons

More interested in growth than retention. As someone else posted there are people at the company who are in key positions because they have been there a long time. Their lack of talent hurts efficiency and retention of clients and employees. Structure of company causes constant contention and makes people feel disconnected.

Pros

Social Events People are passionate Well known in the automotive industry Office is nice Hires quickly/easily Flexible hours Be wary about fake reviews with nothing but positives...even people who work at amazing companies or fortune 500s where they make 6 figures have cons/things they’d like to change about their job.

Cons

Very very low pay, will try to lowball you, they’re cheap Blatant favoritism/ole boys club/ hard to make a name for yourself unless you’re in it Very little diversity, nearly everyone is white and leadership is white and male. None of the higher ups/HR talks about diversifying, will literally argue they are diverse Health Benefits are not good and the co-pays are high People complain upper management yells at them/is disrespectful/rude/not supportive but, nothing changes You’re encouraged to work at home/past your hours if you want to grow Partners/Presidents/VPs all seem to be oblivious to issues or maybe HR doesn’t relay issues to them High turnover rate because of all of this, it is discouraging to see all your friends leaving/ hearing people whispering constantly complaining about job

Good job to start career but not a good one to grow with

Pros

Casual environment Beer Friday every month Occasional company outings Good work/life balance Modern workplace Good salary to start out of college Unlimited PTO (with manager approval) Able to work from home sometimes

Cons

Very political... top executives are buddy buddy with few people, making others feel like outcasts. If you aren't in the good ole' boy group, then good luck. They are nice to all but they definitely play favorites... ex. certain handshakes, talk to them on first name basis, and get invited to events where they aren't deserving but others that are deserving are left behind. Very flat organization.... No room for growth (unless you are in the good ole' boy group) with limited pay increases.... high turnover is seen because people leave for better opportunities with better pay.

Dear Former Employee, Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback as we are always looking for ways to improve. When our company was founded, our leaders not only built a thriving company but built friendships. The same employees who started with us, are still here today. Naturally, lifelong friendships are formed. With that being said, favoritism regarding pay increases, promotions, and other employment perks are not tolerated. In fact, we promote people based on stellar performance and teamwork rather than tenure. Successfully growing a culture like this requires setting up a system that demonstrates and recognizes contributions and performance on individual and group level. On the downside, it also requires establishing an understanding of consequences, ensuring employees take responsibility and accountability for their performance. Not everyone gets a trophy. We had instances where employees have seen peers getting opportunities they were not receiving and perceiving that as favoritism. On further investigation, it turned out those employees were working extra hours, going above and beyond to earn the confidence of their manager and, ultimately, earning those chances for advancement. But when the boss favors someone in the office without real merit that at its core is unprofessional behavior and is addressed. Again thank you for your review!
