Pros

Working for PartsSource has been very fulfilling experience for me overall. Although it is not without fault, I would expect a few pitfalls from any company growing as fast as we have been over the years. The people are one of the major reasons that I have stayed as long as I have, along with the challenging nature of my various positions. Contrary to other comments on here; The various promotions I have received over the years have been based on job performance and qualifications, rather than who I knew. The opposing views displayed earlier seem to be rantings of disgruntled former-employees looking to blame others for their short comings. Overall, PartsSource has a non-stop, fast paced environment that I would recommend to anyone with a strong work ethic and drive.

Cons

I am taking some time to speak to what I personally believe are false comments about executives asking employees to write positive comments on here. I was never asked to do so, and have been in a relatively high ranking position for many years. Reading that others have stated they were asked to do so seems completely falsified as it is opposes our current CEO's stance on just about everything. I would understand how people like me would see all of the negative reviews, and feel inclined to speak up about the company they have worked so hard for. In regard to my view of the present cons among the company, I only have one under the new leadership; The hiring of non-professional employees. The sales floor often times has a High School feel with a "rumor/gossip mill" big enough to rival the worst of reality TV. While I have never been a direct target of this behavior, I know many people that have felt personally attacked by the actions of others within the company. Completely unprofessional and immature from a group of "adults".

Pros

The marketing department has tremendous opportunity for growth and professionalization. There's a genuine long runway ahead to establish more formalized processes, build structured systems, and elevate marketing practices across the organization. The foundation is there—it just needs intentional development and strategic implementation to reach its full potential.

Cons

Executive leadership lacks internal alignment and communication. There's a disconnect between departments where decision-making isn't coordinated, resulting in siloed efforts and duplicated work.

Pros

There are a number of genuinely talented, smart people across functions, and I learned a lot from the colleagues around me.

Cons

Prospective applicants and those interested in acquiring the company may want to read the reviews here with a heavy dose of discernment and skepticism. A number of the recent positive reviews appear to have been at the encouragement of management and HR, and the timing seems connected to the company preparing for a sale, so they may not reflect the typical employee experience. Based on my own time here, I would not recommend the role to anyone who prioritizes their wellbeing, meaningful work, and work-life balance. The environment took a real toll on mine. The organization is top-heavy, and leadership's attention often seems directed at the wrong priorities. Leadership also protects the wrong people and has little insight into how stretched most teams are, often with few resources. Many talented people stay mainly because of the promise of a future equity or stock payout rather than the work itself, which points to a retention problem rooted in incentives rather than genuine engagement.
