Pros

Good foot in the door in to used car business

Cons

Very underpaid Underappreciated position, you work sometimes upwards of 50 hours a week to sell 10 to 11 cars a month. Anytime you don’t sell cars in a two week span you get paid minimum-wage which in turn you have to pay back to the company with your commissions from the following weeks so it becomes a endless pit Underappreciated position, you work sometimes upwards of 50 hours a week to sell 10 to 11 cars a month. Anytime you don’t sell cars and a two week span you get paid minimum-wage which in turn you have to pay back to the company with your commissions from the following weeks so it becomes a endless pit of paying the company back. The commissions or so extremely smart to sell one car when the companies making billions every year. Make sure you cross Your T’s and dot your eyes because they will find any reason to let you go even when you’re a hard-working person.
