Pros

Great starting salary for individuals starting their first career. Since you work a lot of hours you become great friends with your coworkers. It is a great teamwork environment. If teamwork is not your style then this job is not for you. You get to go outside and enjoy the nice weather; you're not pinned at a desk for 8 hours.

Cons

Very long hours. Since this is a salaried position you are not compensated for the large amount of overtime you will be putting in. If you don't make a sale then those hours are wasted. DriveTime expects you to not want to leave work. Tax season is the hardest time of year; don't expect to have a social life during those months. Horrible breaks. Even if you put in 10-12 hours you only get a 30 minute break; sometimes you don't even get that! A lot of the employees get cranky because we're all starving!

Pros

Competitive Salary, Retail hours let you come in late enough in the morning and leave early enough in the evening to have an outside life, Overall a fun work environment with monthly national and local sales contests, Great place for fresh grads to quickly gain management experience.

Cons

The initial training is lousy even though the company invests a great amount of money in travel/hotel/food for a 2-3 week training period. The company fast-tracks employees into management which is a good thing; however, because of this, Senior Management is "green", not having enough solid experience under their belts to know how to effectively manage employees and the dealership.
