Pros

Manheim has strong benefits, like a 401(k) match up to 6% and commercial department-provided meals-but make no mistake, they'll put you through the wringer. The perks are there, but they come at a cost, with a work environment that can be intense and unforgiving.

Cons

The commercial department at Manheim Southern Califonia is grueling and unsupportive. Management seems more invested in tearing down their team than fostering any sense of growth or appreciation. No matter how hard you work, it's never enough, and if you make a single mistake due to the relentless workload, you're hauled into the manager's office and treated as if you risked her job. The demands are punishing, the recognition is nonexistent, and the stress level is so intense that more than half the department is desperate to leave. The pay simply doesn't compensate for this kind of environment.

Pros

Flexible scheduling, and plenty of volunteer time, if you need extra money in your pocket - the ability to use your cell phone - have a lot of freedom without people looking over your back directly. But they're constantly scouring the lot watching. They call it policing the lot

Cons

Little room for advancement unless you are young - managers act like they're bi polar smile at you one minute and give you a dirty look the next - GM is very toxic and is a liar. Compensation is only slightly over minimum wage - company makes billions in profit - work outside in every weather condition, whether it's pouring rain and 5° or sunny and 100°
