Pros

The potential to earn a decent salary with great benefits. The health benefits are awesome and so is earned vacation time.

Cons

The pressure of having to sell a minimum amount of units before you can even make commission. They tell customers cars can be transferred without a fee, but employees have to drive to get the cars for the customer. Sometimes driving to get a car will take 6 hours away from your sales day, which is not worth it. You are salaried employee and only get 30 minutes to eat each day if you get a chance to eat at all. No teamwork. The management team feel as if they can talk to you in a disrespectful way.

We are sorry to see you didn't have a better experience with the management team. We understand that the day to day duties at the dealership can require the flexibility of our employees but with this comes the opportunity to increase sales and commission. We appreciate your feedback.

Pros

Comfortable base salary, relaxed work environment, coworkers are like a second family. GM and managers are great and teaching development. A lot of room for growth

Cons

Long hours, when it’s slow it’s slow and when it’s busy you don’t have time to eat. Company is going through growing pains and it’s difficult to adjust to fast moving changes

Pros

-commission structure is set up to reward top performers -usually a good store culture that promotes learning and helping each other succeed -career development is readily available if you can relocate

Cons

- LONG hours, usually every shift will last an extra 30min to a few hours - if you are at a slow store you and you want to sell a lot of cars, no matter your effort you will not see the results you want.

Thank you for sharing. We understand that retail hours can be demanding and as a company, we put benefits in place like commissions, extra days off and a fun working environment in an effort to reward our hard working teams. Your hard work is appreciated and valuable.
