LKQ reviews

I worked in accounting during my time there and they have a definite problem with management. Some of the managers lack professionalism, and will go out of their way to make an employee feel like an outsider. They will treat employees differently based on their personal feelings and nothing to do with the work of the employee. This is one reason why they have such a turnover in accounting. Also their PTO package is seriously lacking, you only get 5 days of PTO time the first year you are there. That is for vacation and sick, the only offer 7 holidays a year.

Not one location is fully staffed. They push the work load off on the employees they do have instead of hiring the correct amount of people to do the job. Forget being compensated for it. They cut the Sales Managers pay by 20%, they also took away commission for the sales route drivers and then re-created a pay structure screwing the employee. And they wonder why they can't keep people. LKQ has some of the highest ratings for being one of the worse places to work. You will under paid and over worked and given other peoples work loads. HR works for the Employer not the Employee. So if you get hurt while your at work and file a workman comp claim, you will mist likely be fired for some off the wall excuse. We currently have a D rating on the BBB. Not enough check it out for yourself. They try to cover things up because they are owned by share holders and not an individual person. So if something happens they try to take care of it before it leaks out. They don't want people cashing in their shares, they would fold.
