Pros

Good discount on tires. Well known brand.

Cons

The corporate environment is extremely clicky and in many cases very toxic. There are high level employees in the company who show blatant favoritism with how they talk, treat, and promote their "friends". Individuals have been promoted to managers with very little experience or advanced degree while ignoring candidates who are more diverse. High level employees yell and throw tantrums at their subordinates when they are upset instead of demonstrating leadership and offering help. There is management at the HQ who talk to individuals as if they are less of a human than they are creating a horrible working environment.

Pros

Stable work - buses on the road every day, so tire service tends to be more predictable than some other retail work. Mechanical experience - You'll gain experience with heavy-duty vehicles, commercial tires, fleet operations, safety procedures, and potentially CDL-related skills. Physically demanding - Frequent lifting of tires, pushing heavy equipment, bending, kneeling, and working around large vehicles are regular parts of the job.

Cons

Repetitive labor - Much of the work involves mounting, balancing, and repairing large tires repeatedly throughout a shift. Safety risks - Working with heavy commercial tires and transit vehicles requires strict adherence to safety procedures and PPE requirements.
