Hours long if your a sales associate. Customers who want to abuse you like other car sales people who make a lot off of one sale.

Pros

Well Carmax is a good company, who treats their employees very well. My Carmax, spoiled us on weekends with catered lunch. If your a highschool student or college student, its is a great job.

Cons

Job is rather repetitive at times, low pay if you have a family, or want to live on your own. The works are spread out, so its hard to find help when you need it from team members. Management barks orders of things to do, and it presents stress, and also you have a hard time completing a task.

Pros

You make your own money. Control how much you make.

Cons

A little underpaid, hard to really make a great living at a smaller store. The bigger stores are extremely easy to make great money.
