Pros

If you had asked me this 6 months ago I would give Carvana 5 stars and say absolutely you need to work there. What makes this job good is the staff and consistency for schedule.

Cons

The senior leadership is extremely unprofessional and showcase favoritism so blatantly. The rapid shift in culture and the false idea of them caring about their people are evident. Carvana was a place I saw myself at long term until this year. All decision making is based on numbers and metrics and they never consider the people. They pile on more and more work and never share an ounce of gratitude any longer. It’s such a shame to see the state they are in. They’re so focused on profitably that they forgot that if you don’t care for your employees you’ll never have a successful business. That’s why their attrition rate is through the roof this year.

Pros

Great benefits and fun perks in a unique environment made this job at HQ mostly enjoyable most days. There were a lot of changes and areas to learn a lot about so if you're someone looking to gain experience this may be a fit for you as long as you can play the office politics game all day. C-level executives were amazing but that's where the leadership abilities stop. Directors and below are often more focused on their own gains instead of developing their teams.

Cons

Leadership was more like a competitive frat/sorority where it's about who likes whom at the frequent happy hours. This company could be so much more if the popularity contests and egos were left at the door.

Pros

Not much that is great anymore. Really moving downhill like every big corporate company after going public. Cool building and benefits are decent.

Cons

Pay is below average for all the extra work you do. Working here and growing in your career is all about who you know, what Ivy League school you went to, and who you're friends with.
