Pros

Pay was good. Weekends off. That is about it.

Cons

First question on the questionnaire they send you for a Service Manager job is, What is your average ticket? Now that speaks volumes about Christianity. They put in place owners, who know zero about the auto industry. I as Service Manager am trying to teach my owner the business and frankly, he is just not the brightest bulb in the lamp. Too much to keep up with between the parts, workflow, autoflow, returned parts, core parts, high volume of phone quotes from the coupon shoppers (which they force you to do, versus taking care of customers who are there!!), dispatching shuttle rides, and everything else. High , and I mean lots of hours folks. I did 130 hours in two weeks! They brag about giving you weekends off, but you use your entire weekend to relax, because you got slaughtered all week!!

Pros

* Gained strong experience managing a high-volume workload across multiple locations, which significantly improved my time management and operational skills. * Overall, I had many positive years with the company and built valuable professional relationships.

Cons

* Frequent leadership changes led to shifting standards, with teams and managers operating under different expectations and little overall consistency. * The company’s messaging around culture did not always reflect the day-to-day experience. * Employees who approached situations differently from the majority were not always supported, which limited inclusion and innovation.
