Pros

Benefits kick in after only working for 30 days. Clean look throughout the stores, friendly environment. No pressure sales or need for playing typical car sales mind-games.

Cons

Mid-level managers often disagree with their corporate policy yet are too scared to speak up. They just do what their upper management tells them even though they don't like what they're being told and don't have the guts to do outside the box.

Pros

Great pay for a college student! Tuition assistance available for part-time employees too! Flexible scheduling while in school. Training and gained knowledge of the automotive and retail industries.

Cons

Four years later and I'm in the same position. Hard work often times goes unnoticed. Prepare to work with other employees who don't.
