Pros

Good benefits and title work experience, you also learn to interface with various levels of upper-management ...

Cons

It is funny how all these positive reviews from the home oofice are popping up. Anytime you have a CEO who has the attitude that eveyone can be replaced, RUN. The hours are too long and unhealthy. Upper management are always the last to arrive and the first to leave. HR is extremely unprofessional, especially in Florida (the RTM NEVER returns calls and when you report hostility, she blames it on you). The market managers always take the side of the sale associates, you talk to more voicemails than actual people. When it snowed, the regionals, who were at home, threatened to write everyone up. The dealerships keep popping up but they lack proper leadership and are severly understaffed. You will be underpaid although they think they are doing us a favor. Do NOT ask for feedback because you will not get it if it means helping you get to the next level. They rely on too much gossip, especially the Florida RTM ...

Pros

Break room Covered work area good lighting

Cons

Deceptive Company policy that is hard to access (Need to create a case with HR to review policies that are not easily located). Management over work with little notice for demand of Overtime. Management Typically uses google search to base their decisions instead of consulting their diagnostic team. Over demand of core job responsibilities ( Doing more than what you agreed to do upon hire). If Something was missed or not performed a certain way management will stop your production to show what you did wrong with the expectation that you will still hit production targets. Management also tends to talk down instead of a coaching approach. If you happen to go above and beyond (which is hard to do) little rewards come your way ( Things that wont come). Typical work shifts consists of maintaining a pace that is hard to achieve to always hit targets even if several roadblocks are in the way that you cant avoid. Overall working here I found it difficult to effectively communicate with management or other co-workers. * Working here I have personally experienced Sexual harassment and sexual assault, I have informed management and have heard no update on that topic other than "talked to said employee". Then Said Employee's behavior changed and found it extremely difficult to perform duties.
