Pros

Big inventory, training provided, potential for decent salary.

Cons

All dealerships going to treating sales force like children. I worked for a year in car industry and had 5 GM's, impossible to meet numbers and keep profit for company. I had customers ready to buy at a certain price and management said no, then 2 weeks later want me to call them back 3 times a day to tell them we will take the deal...but it was to late. Long hours, had 4 days off a month which they hid at interview time. They change work hours and commissions all the time.

Pros

I enjoy meeting our customers. No days are the same. Flexible schedule. I'm the face of Hendrick GM parts and understand the importance of my role in keeping our customer base and expanding it.

Cons

None. I have great support and I bring back information that helps determine decisions to improve sales.

Pros

Solid corporation Corporate culture is positive Community initiatives are second to none Free health care Freedom to move

Cons

It's sales. When the economy is soft, commissions can be tight. Most locations work on a volume pay plan rather than gross profit. Most of your coworkers' primary qualification is the ability to fog a mirror. While you can largely come and go as you please, it's still expected that you are on the lot no less than 50 hours a week, leaving very little room for work-life balance.
