Loyalty Pays at Copart

Pros

I have worked at Copart for over two years and I think this is a great company. They offer substantial benefits, including employee stock purchase and matching 401k, and the salaries are good. I love the sense of family in our yard, and everyone covers each others' back. There are rewards for a job well-done, and they know who the good workers are! The fresh-out-of-college training program is great, and there are GMs of yard who have worked their way up to that position, so if you are a hard worker, you can easily promote without a college degree.

Cons

Sometimes there are long hours, but that's to be expected in just about any job. Of course I wish I made more money (as with most jobs) but I can see a clear path for promotions.

Pros

After 15 minutes of thinking of something to put here, I gave up. If it prevents your foreclosure, take the job but stay on your job search. You will hate it here, I promise you. Read ALL of the reviews.

Cons

Sharing hotel rooms with strangers on every company trip, bad management, low pay, cronyism, lack of technology, no voicemail, outdated business processes, no checks and balances for management, clueless upper management, no room for advancement, excessive turnover, they delight in terminating people, general managers do no work and rarely even show up to work, lack of communication between branches, no spirit of teamwork, individualistic thinking on all levels, they'd rather refund all day that fix the problem, they delight in working in confusion, they do not value education hence all the problems above, hiring sub-par employees as opposed to paying to get valuable employees, sweeping everything under the rug, general managers and regional managers not held accountable, HR is a joke, lower level employees have no protection against self-serving actions of managers (personal or professional) and therefore employees are subject to abuse of bad AGMs, GMs, and RMs.

Pros

Co-workers are great. They try really hard to make it a family atmosphere.

Cons

Management is the worst I have ever seen. Especially the Managers (all the way up to the VP) In Human Resources. The employees do all the work, then they take all the credit.
