Pros

A flexible work schedule and lots of training to help you make a living selling cars and other accessories. Laid back work environment. Good opportunity to meet and serve customers from all walks of life.

Cons

Pay was a little disappointing for the amount of work and performance required to keep one's job. Training was rather overwhelming and too experimental. A revolving door and a high turnoverrate of very good employees.

Good People, Bad Pay

Pros

Good Benefits, exempt employees are engaged in the business.

Cons

The company punishes those who will not relocate from big market stores and hand out bonuses to managers in store that do significantly less work in new markets off the backs of big market employees. Company shows a lot of favoritism behind closed doors. Employees are significantly underpaid compared to similar jobs at competing companies.
