Pros

Work from home potential, "4 days weeks" but you'll have dealerships able to reach you on your cell. Imagine how that goes.

Cons

Management doesn't want to you to grow. Stay in the same spot and cross your fingers in an economic downturn, Expect to apply to your job when times are tough, My team was forced to reapply many times regardless of performance.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We appreciate your contributions during your tenure at Walser. The times of transition can be challenging. The first department restructure occurred in response to the pandemic in 2020, followed by significant technology changes that impacted our structure over the years. Ultimately, these changes led to the department’s elimination in 2024, a decision we do not take lightly. Throughout these transitions, we aimed to provide a career path within the finance center, allowing team members to grow within the department. Additionally, employees had the opportunity to explore roles within our dealership network if they wished to continue their career with Walser. We can understand that this was not an easy time, and we are sorry if you did not experience the support we wanted to provide during these transitions. If you have further feedback, we encourage you to reach out to us directly (CHRO - Sherry Schultz @ sschultz@walser.com or myself directly, Lindsey Trett @ ltrett@walser.com). We value the experiences of our team members—past and present—as we continue to evolve and improve. Thank you again for your honesty and feedback.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're glad to hear that onboarding into the position was straightforward. Providing a base salary in a sales position is part of our compensation philosophy and different from many commission based roles, especially in automotive. We understand that the nature of the automotive industry can present scheduling challenges, and 8 months ago we launched the 4-Day Work Week to our entire sales force in MN. This was unheard of in our industry and has proven to better the work-life balance for our team (and resolve some of the challenges with typical retail hours). We value a supportive and cohesive management environment as a key part of our team's success, so we genuinely appreciate your insights. If you have any additional insights on how we can improve, we'd love to hear them. Please email me directly -- ltrett@walser.com Wishing you the best in your career! Thank you for your feedback and for your time at Walser. Lindsey Trett Walser's Director of Talent Acquisition
