Unrealistic Targets in an Overly Competitive Market - Sales Associate AUTO1 Group Employee Review

Pros

The salary is competitive and always paid on time. The company respects local labour laws, and their administrative processes are punctual and well-organised. In addition, the Pristina office allows two days of remote work, which is genuinely helpful given the traffic issues in the capital city.

Cons

The car-sales targets are extremely high and unrealistic. The market is saturated and highly competitive, and Auto1’s car prices are often higher than other procurement options available to dealerships, making sales very difficult. On top of that, the job requires making a very high number of calls just to reach a minimum number of people who actually answer the phone.

Pros

I have to put 20 words in this box, so I'm just gonna keep typing until I get a green check mark... there we go. :)

Cons

Worked as an outside rep. I ended up paying them to work here with all of the driving I had to do. Very little consistency with what you're asked to do. This company burns business relationships with dealers left and right. If you're an inside sales rep, expect a lot of people hanging up bc at this point most dealers already know this place doesn't live up to its word as far as the condition of the cars you sell, or the arbitration policy.
