Pros

Co-workers were actually really helpful. Helped me out a lot more than the manager would ever.

Cons

Essentially making 100+ dials everyday going through recycled pipelines attempting to sell below subpar vehicles with really high APR - only offered low base, NO COMMISSION, only team-based bonus every month which is quite literally is stupid. Expected to do OT almost daily with no extra pay. And absolutely no support running around the store when there’s 3-4 of you in the whole store max. Store manager would micromanages you as well.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback as a CEG. We're glad to hear that your co-workers were supportive and helpful during your time here. As a company, we believe in carpooling to a shared destination - it's one of our core values. Because of this, we switched to a team-based commission to provide a pressure-free sales experience for our customers and a non-competitive sales environment for our employees. We want our employees to work together as a team, not against each other. This is also why we provide a base salary. Thank you for sharing your experience, we wish you the best in your future endeavors.

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.
