Sorry to hear you had a bad experience. The company works very hard to uphold our values of inclusion, diversity and support. I would invite any employee to reach out to the HR team if they feel we are not living up to our high standards.

Pros

There are no pros to working for this company, it's old school car biz and they try to tell the employees something totally different.

Cons

They promised everyone would be kept when the bought our family owned dealership. Everyone was fired within 30 days. They say one thing and illustrate something totally different.

We are sorry to hear that you are unhappy about your experience. Ken Garff is a fast growing company. We believe our competitive advantage is our people and unleashing their talent is our goal. We have made several acquisitions over the past few years. We put a great deal of effort into keeping and finding employees who share our values and are willing to live up to our high standards. Occasionally, there are situations where there isn't great alignment between an employee and the company. We certainly understand and wish a person great luck if the relationship doesn't work out. To "clean house" creates unnecessary work and eliminates part of the value of a business (relationships and people). We are not interested in throwing away value. We approach every acquisition optimistic that we can keep the most important asset, the people and relationships they represent.

Great insights. Our turnover is a concern to us. The industry, as a whole, has a turnover problem. We are working diligently to outperform the industry. Please share any ideas you have with HR to help us keep the best people.
