      Pros

      A great place to work, I hope I can continue on for a long time. I really like the culture at Carmax. I appreciate the compensation and value the training. I have enormous faith in Carmax. I enjoy working with my coworkers and supervisors and feel valued at work. I also value my coworkers. I love my job.

      Cons

      Worried about job stability. With the present day market I am fearful of the stability of my job, others are as well. Other than that there are really no downsides to working at Carmax. IT is a great place to work. There are many challenges and many opportunities.

      Great place to work....part time

      Pros

      $3,500 college tuition assistance Higher than average retail pay if you work for it (straight commission) Car sales without the pressure Best part-time job in my opinion

      Cons

      Credit approvals rejected last minute screwing your deal Surprisingly some customers don't like the "no haggle price" You have to stay with your customer until they leave the store, this goes against eh entire no pressure philosophy of the company.

      Pros

      Good work enviroment. Managers pretended to care. Had up to date equipment.

      Cons

      Managers said one thing but did another. I was told once I got my ASE's current I would get the standerd raises according to their scale. But when the time came instead of getting the $7 an hour raise they were supposed to give they only wanted to give me $2 an hour. But get this they wanted me to be the lead on top of that. When I turned in my notice they wanted to act like the $2 an hour was everything in the world. They preach integrity but they can't even support what they said they were going to do when they hired me. They told lies to get me to come on board but like every other big company they all lie.
