CarGurus reviews

- Very limited opportunity for career growth. You can grow only into management roles and there are not many. All the operations are run from the US. If you just want to sell and get paid, the money is good! - No compensation for working overtime. - Inflexible working hours. - Working from home is really restricted and under very strict and specific circumstances. It's pretty much just like not having it. - Crazy amount of admin work. Management wants to measure everything even if it doesn't bring value to the customers. - Automotive is not from everybody and you won't be handling hi-tech SaaS solutions. - They have quite a bit a of tech debt and improvements can take ages.

Don't work here if you're looking for a high growth opportunity. There are rules in place so that you can't be promoted, or even move departments, if you've been in your position for less than a year, so upward mobility is extremely slow. Also, the company has grown too much to be able to keep up with the honest and open "transparent" culture anymore, despite it being a core value. Work from home (before COVID) is only allowed 2 times per month (recently upgraded from 1 day per month), and upper management has somehow fooled themselves to thinking this is average for the tech industry. In the last year or so things have become noticeably more corporate and political than they used to be, from my own and experience and from speaking to (former) colleagues who have been there 4-5+ years. There are a ton of hoops to jump through and roadblocks in order to get a raise or promotion.
