Pros

No personal vehicle expenses. Having experienced working there I would never recommend for a family member to work there.

Cons

Extremely long and stressful workdays No job security Cars are not available 90% of the time, leading to customer complaints and even more stress on front line employees Very low pay for all customer facing employees. Managers are also totally underpaid especially when taking in consideration the hours they work. Understaffed offices where a few employees do everything: providing customer service, managing fleet, cleaning cars, picking up and dropping off customers, delivering cars, cleaning bathrooms and office, making calls etc. Highly sales driven leading to not having customers best interest in mind!

Pros

It is possible to make a difference if you are determined enough. Many engineers work hard and most try.

Cons

The company has a ton of tech debt that it recognized, but is not being addressed. Management controls the time, scope and so quality is falling. The people they have hired lack fundamentals understanding of software development practices. The company often will make decisions to save small amounts of money with their facilities and tools they give to employees without understanding the opportunity cost that was lost. Overtime is required. You can't work here if you want to have a family or keep your family from hating you. Title inflation is real. Many people are actually performing one level down from their stated title and those that are not are only not failing due to putting in crazy hours. Middle management wont stickup for their people to ensure they are not burning out. They see it happening multiple times in front of them and they do nothing.
