Pros

A covered parking garage.... that’s about all I can think of.

Cons

Management is unbelievable. Do you have a pulse? Can you type and see? Have you poked your nose around enough to the “right” people and expressed interest in management? Then you ready for management! I promise you... I worked my butt off to ensure that whatever my name was on represented the company to the fullest. I went over and beyond to deliver the best for our clients and internal customers. Unfortunately, I was not appreciated and overworked. It is so sad, but I am thankful that I was able to get out of this toxic environment and go to a company that sincerely loves and listens to their employees! At Autotrader, you’re left to feel like a robot... like you’re replaceable even if you have a wealth of knowledge. To be honest, it is really sad, but nothing is done about it. It is almost as if they sit in a room trying to figure out how to make hard working employees more miserable.

Pros

Generally the benefits are good, but are declining. The head of CoxEnterprises believes in employee empowerment and benefits. The values of CEI are wonderful and the reason I stay.

Cons

Current leadership over AutoTrader (CAI) prioritizes profits over all else so we have reorganizations every year or so making it an unstable environment. The company is now run by Finance and HR, so you can imagine the culture.
