Pros

Hours were reasonable. Pay was adequate. Good activities Networking is great because there are a tremendous amount of newly hired, well educated and very experienced people stuck in DT's ranks because of the down turn of the job market.

Cons

If you haven't worked at a dealership you can't advance. I left voluntarily at the first chance because DriveTime is fairly unstable. You are always worried about getting a tap on the shoulder, saying you loss your job because of the constant restructuring. Additionally, there is a Good Ole Boy network that is really a good ole, "Boy", "Girl" or anyone who stuck with them since they were Ugly Duckling. They don't provide opportunities for "new hires" to advance. You can't seem to get hired in this company as anything but a worker bee. You're stuck at rock bottom until someone quits or transfers. Terrible for diversity in talent and for those newer employees who worked hard to get a degree & have experience. Once the economy bounces back, DriveTime better look out for the mass exodus!

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.
