Thank you for sharing your experience as an automotive technician. It is great to hear you enjoyed your schedule. Having a schedule that allows our employees to live outside work is extremely important to us - our employees are people first. We expect all our employees, including management, to uphold our values and treat everyone equally and with respect we're sorry to hear that was not your experience.. While we may have parted ways, we wish you the best in your future position!

Toxic leadership that has poisoned the culture

Pros

Great benefits/perks, casual dress code, hybrid/remote flexibility. Competitive pay

Cons

Never in my life have I worked for an organization with such terrible leaders…Ranging anywhere from yelling at individuals, harassing people for asking questions/ saying the wrong things, being set up for failure, manipulation, blatant lying, singling people out for no apparent reason, and trashing colleagues behind their back. What’s even more sad is that countless people talk about it but nothing changes. This behavior stems from one particular individual but it has trickled down over time and seems to have rubbed off on their subordinates. The immaturity in the organization is apparent as you constantly overhear gossip. Conversations that should be held privately are done out in the open. On top of that, no one has a clue what’s going on and they just seem to laugh about it. Everyone is always confused in meetings and you’ll end up talking in circles. That is…if they show for the meeting since punctuality and common courtesy is a joke here. You’ll get laughed at if you even mention the word training…there is no such thing. If you are okay turning a blind eye to toxic and unethical behavior, you’ll be okay. But if you have a soul, run and never look back.

Thank you for sharing your experience as a Sales Associate. As a company, we provide a base salary for our employees plus commission based on store performance. We find this helps promote a collaborative environment and encourages team members to work together. The DriveTime family also provides paid bonding leave to employees who have been with the company for at least one year as of the qualifying event. Thank you for sharing your experience, while we may have parted ways, we wish you all the best in your future endeavors!
