Pros
Cox Automotive is doing such exciting work in the automotive business. We are truly transforming the way the world buys sells and owns cars. I love that we are privately held which means we aren't answering to shareholders every 90 days. This lets us make decisions that may not pay off immediately, but are the right thing to do. It is a 4th generation family company and all 34,000 team members feel like family. When I was applying for the job 10 years ago, I ran across a couple who both worked for different Cox Companies. They told me that they had no plans of ever leaving Cox. I'm so glad I met them. I sure did make the right decision.
Cons
We are going from a house of brands to a branded house. There is a lot of movement in the company as we simplify how we go to market. This leads to some change exhaustion, but I do see the future getting clearer and clearer.
