Pros

Very relaxing work enviornment (during 2023/2024). Management facilitates team bonding activities (cookouts, car shows, etc.)

Cons

No longer on OMNI, lower pay compared to pre-COVID sales. (Still very competitive in the auto industry.) Personally felt targeted by management towards the end of my career at this location.
