DriveTime Automotive Group reviews

Loooooong hours with no work-life balance. This sucks. You never know what time you will be leaving, even if the doors are supposed to close at a certain time. Be prepared to spend 10+ hours a day just about anytime you are scheduled to be there. Telemarketing. Be prepared for LOTS of phone work. I personally don't mind following up on appointments, confirming appointments, and responding to requests for information, but the company buys leads from third parties, so there's cold-calling and a phone "work-flow" you have to follow, even if the lead is clearly not interested. Additionally, the company doesn't care about bothering leads, either. You will be making phone calls at 9am on Saturday, as well as 8:50pm on Tuesday. You'll learn to get over feeling bad about this. Constant change of policy, procedure, and programs. The company will implement something, and turn right back around and get rid of it. Or make a zillion changes to a policy, procedure, or program, and you'll be unsure as to what it is you are actually supposed to be doing, which will lead to a lot of running to a manager for question-answering.

Limited training. Outdated technology; terrible computer programs that don't get the job done. Smead, Collector pro, Fusion, Inilex; terrible. Supervisors that rarely take calls and won't support you. Low bonus; literally cut in half. No respect, constantly changing schedule justified by "business needs." They treat you like a child, constant lies and fabricated goals that can't be met unless it's your turn to get a bonus.
