Pros

Good Pay, GREAT people.

Cons

long work days, no consideration for personal life tragedies. God forbid you have to bury a loved one ... better be sure you have all the paperwork to prove it.

Pros

Hours are full time-but not early bird or night owl. Small store staff, not an overwhelming experience joining this team. One on one training and learning experiences. Learn how to work with a variety of customers and how to individualize our company to work for each of them. Lots of ways to meet needs.

Cons

Not a huge fan of the women's shirts we have to wear-not very flattering.

Great pay for easy work, but not at a price...

Pros

PAY! The commissions and bonuses are endless. Honestly, it's like they try to give away money to their employees. It's easy to make boo-koo bucks here. Coworkers are about the same age, company-wide, so there's lots in common with each other. The company promotes from within and will move their employees to different locations if desired, many times with relocation assistance. AMAZING BENEFITS PACKAGE! I honestly can't say enough about the great programs and benefits that DriveTime offers its employees. Free lunch a lot and a pretty nice uniform selection (although you do have to buy your own DT apparel).

Cons

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.
