Pros

Growth opportunities available quickly which can lead to a management position. As long as you focus on cross coaching and developing in your sales role you can move up quick.

Cons

Work life balance was a bit unstable. Many hours are required. Can't sell cars of you're not there.

Pros

Good job fresh out of college. Good pay for first year without prior experience. You will become good at sales with this job. Opportunity to move up but only if you are willing to relocate. Off during holidays.

Cons

Real long hours. During Tax Time (January-May) expect to work 60hrs/week. All other months work about 50+ hours depending on how staffed the store is. You have the ability to move up but only if you relocate. And when you get your first promotion to Senior Sales Advisor you get the same pay if not less then you would as a Sales Advisor. So you get promoted to make less which doesn't make sense. You have to get promoted to Sales Manager before you make good money (about 65k-80k). In the mean time, work your butt off for 60+hrs/week and wait possibly a few years before something opens up or relocate.

DriveTime was built on a flat hierarchy to minimize redundant management positions and to allow seamless communication and collaboration throughout the entire company. However, we have heard our employee's concerns and understand that you value greater opportunities for advancement. We are working with our management teams so that everyone has a clear and open path to their own career goals. We appreciate your feedback and hard work, thank you for your review.
