Pros

Discount on cars. Huge inventory to choose from

Cons

Pay is extremely low for car sales, especially in a cross functional location. Not a job to have if you need to provide for a family. Work life balance is almost non existent. Management is unwilling to allow for you to request a specific day off in advance unless you use your vacation time, they solely go based off what schedule Kronos creates. 7 Saturdays off a year. No incentives to sell in cross functional. The top seller makes what the bottom seller makes.
