Pros
The company has great potential and with the right leadership and strategic vision could become a great place to work. Although most of the long term experienced people are gone there are still some great people at Manheim.
Cons
Manheim has attempted to standardize service offerings and force each business location into high standards of financial performance. I agree that Manheim needed to standardize certain processes and services but should not have messed with the boutique style customized services provided by certain auctions in certain markets. By forcing each auction to have only a certain number of people in each department based on volume the business locations were forced into providing service at the lowest common denominator. Less people means less service which means less cars through the lanes and the need to get rid of more people to meet imposed financial standards. The cart is leading the horse down a spiral pathway.
