Pros

Decent pay for the area. Benefits are ok. Most of the people are really helpful and nice. Plenty of opportunities for growth/improvement. Promote from within. Company keeps growing, so it's very steady and stable.

Cons

For the area, the pay is decent, but not for what you are asked to do. Most departments are short staffed and overworked, creating a nearly hostile work environment. Upper management will deny requests to hire more people, regardless of what supporting evidence the team/department heads bring to them. Work-life balance (especially for mid-management) is non-existent. Culture is preached but not practiced. Policy is only a guideline, until management needs it to be a hard line for their purposes. Leadership is mediocre at best, since they don't trust their team with the information that they need to do their job. New ideas are not encouraged and are often shot down (It's not broken, so we don't need to change the way we've always done this). Turn over is really high. Unsure if this due to the fact that the pay is subpar to the task load, or because the leadership is lacking.

Pros

The catalog system is easy to use and technology wise they are pretty up to date, very simple and convenient

Cons

The hours suck, the pay sucks. The company only cares about profit it’s no different from autozone, they are able to sell parts for less compared to Napa because they pay the employees barely above minimum, they don’t like giving raises no matter how hard your work you have to basically be a store manager or higher to get a good pay. They open more stores to make more profit and keep employees at the bare minimum. It sucks working there I think if your ISS, which is wholesale, you can make decent money with that because they give a bigger bonus from the amount of sales you make plus less responsibility and better hours but thats if a position opens up and you’ll probably be there 4 plus years until you can get that position unless you’re lucky and one opens up in the area.
