Copart reviews

Racial discrimination against anyone born in the United States in IT development area (Cobalt,RPG,SAP). I, my family and my parents are of Indian descent. Everybody in my immediate family were born and raised in Chicago metro area. I'm an outsider because I wasn't born in India and consequently socially segregated at work. No chance at advancement because of the location of were I grew up ("Too American" as stated by my co-workers) English is the second language in Copart's programming department. English is spoken only to appease the American born staff when they appear. There are less a handful of IT management & programming staff that were born and educated in the United States. Ongoing software development lawsuits (Sparta vs Copart). Years of missed implementation dates - 3 failed SAP implementation. SAP group is the ongoing joke in the RPG and COBALT development groups. SAP software developed by the Dallas and offshore staffs were laugh at by the German COPART operational staff recently and completely rejected (1 year development costs wasted). Good news for the RPG and COBALT development staff who support the legacy system that SAP is trying to replace. Offshore programming staff that produces little or nothing but are kept on because they are in India (Kickbacks to COPART IT management?). Senior IT management bragged about firing 20-30 IT staff members when I was hired and forced another 20 more out shortly he was hired. "Rama" (IT department head) was really proud of that fact. Offshore staff were hired shortly there after. In regard to the racial inequalities, the HR department responds with "We're in the process of correcting these problem". They're aware of the problem but can't do anything about it. The India caste system imported to the United States. It's the "Copart Way" of doing business in the IT software development department - "Institutionalize Racism". Found another job back in Chicago. Gave notice and left a couple of weeks ago. Worst 3 months of my career and life.

Where do I begin.....TOXIC, unhealthy and horrible work environment. SERIOUSLY underpaid for the amount of daily work you need to do and all the nasty attitudes of the people you deal with on a daily basis both externally & internally. Your work is never good enough. No holidays. HR does not support, work for you or protect you at all-they're comeback is what could YOU have done better in the situation instead of addressing the issue at hand or the individual. Management is horrendous and pathetic at the yard I was at and is only worried about how you make them look to the Regional. For an online auto auction company the system that their employees are forced to use is so archaic and outdated it's hilarious.
