Leadership Is Crap

Pros

Sundays we are closed, but that's it.

Cons

The Store Manager is afraid to make any major decisions due to Corporate always micromanaging. Everyone is expected to work more than 10 hours each day which is burning out the employees. There is no time to be home with the family and management doesn't seem to care as long as they make as much money as possible. Even though quotas are met, leadership thinks it is never enough and you need to work harder and longer. We can't turn away customers even if it's almost closing time (techs still need to diagnose, parts get ordered and delivered, then vehicle get worked on) because they want to make the sale instead of looking out for their employees who have already been there for 10 hours.

Good old boys club.

Pros

Closed on Sundays that's about all.

Cons

Definitely a good old boys club, if you don't fit in your stress level goes thru the roof. They're unfair and treat you very poorly. Worked with one manager who is off the charts unprofessional and constantly belittles you in front of other teammates. It's a company of what have done for me lately, even though you give them everything you got, it's still not enough. My advise to anyone who is thinking about going to work for them is to look elsewhere!! I was laid off due to being over staffed , but noticed an ad placed the same day for its location.
