Pros

The auto industry can be rewarding if you are able to learn from senior techs. At a shop like mine I saw many different makes of vehicles every day. The variety will pay off in the end.

Cons

Long workweeks. Always work Saturdays. Management make a big difference. Life was good under my first manager, but he didn't make the store enough money, so they brought in a new guy, and everything went downhill.

Pros

Great place for qualified techs who enjoy the hands-on nature of the work. And Jason was a good manager.

Cons

There is a significant disconnect between the front office and the shop floor. Service advisors are often "sales-oriented" rather than "service-oriented," which creates unnecessary friction. Management seems to prioritize sales figures over smooth operations, often resulting in "shop favorites" who get the best work while others struggle with pay consistency and high stress. I have seen many highly qualified individuals—people who truly understand how to run the back of the house—get passed over for leadership roles simply because they aren't "salespeople." A shop doesn't need a salesperson to manage the floor; it needs someone who knows how to move jobs along and support the technicians.
