Pros

Not really any pros to be honest. I'm convinced that all the good reviews that are on here a written by someone at headquarters who does nothing but sit on their gluteus Maximus all day and do nothing since they have no clue what's going on.

Cons

Where do I start???? -No work/life balance. Good luck trying to have a life working here because there is no structure in the schedule. -No diversity at all in upper management positions. -There's a such thing as weekends? - Be ready to drive 400-500 miles a day. -Always be ready to make up for someone else's mistakes and take the blame for everyone's mess ups. -Can't use your PTO when you want. You're told when you can take your own vacations for time that you've earned. -Management rather go out and have drinks and a good time while the real workers literally slave away. **So much more can be said. I'm sure they will have this deleted before the truth about really working here gets out.

Pros

Not many that I can think of other than being outside in the summer and independent.

Cons

You will work 12 hour days usually starting at 4:30am and you only get paid for miles. Once you leave the yard you start making money, but it takes 2 hours to load cars in the morning and 1 hour to unload unless you are running. Carvana states that you get extra miles for loading and unloading but the extra miles at .60 per mile only work out to about 10.00 per hour. Basically minimum wage for 3 hours a day. You'll have to work through the winter outside when its -40 with wind blowing and 20 semis in the ditch on your route from black ice so keep that in mind. Management only cares about you leaving on-time and thats about it..a deaf ear to any other constructive thoughts. Cameras watching every move and you get dinged all the time which will effect your quarterly "safety" bonus.
