Pros

Safelite has decent benefits and has the great opportunity of a take home vehicle so you don’t even spend money on gas to go to work.

Cons

A huge part of the compensation package is the bonus plan. The way the company has the bonus plan set up allows great technicians to be disqualified from bonus pay because of situations that are beyond control of the technicians. Being disqualified from bonus pay strips hundreds of dollars per week away from a technician and therefore makes the pay insulting for what the job entails. Also when a dispatcher doesn’t pay attention to job locations sometimes you end up working a 12-14 hour day - spending most of the day in the vehicle driving around to meet with unhappy customers. The HR department is impossible to deal with. If you have to call them you can plan on sitting on hold for almost an hour. When you do talk to someone if they tell you they are going to call you back, know that they are lying to you.

Pros

Generally, they try to set you up for success and has hands down been the best company at doing so that I have ever worked for. They provide you with not only a work vehicle, uniforms, and even most of the tools required to perform the job. Training is excellent, they take their time with it and really make sure you know how to do everything before you're on the road by yourself. Generally, the pay is good as well. Dealing with customers can be fun, most just want to chit chat or know more about the installation process.

Cons

This section may need to be taken with a grain of salt but by far my least favorite thing during my employment was the culture. this may of just been an issue with the shops in my area but there was a significant amount of hazing/competitiveness. If someone thought you were bad at your job, they let you know and would generally be unpleasant about it. The question was always "Who is the best?" and this wasn't only a problem with techs, management encouraged it. Numbers were everything, whether it be your daily job count or your customer rating. The pressure from all of that can really weigh down on you. The hours were a bit demanding as well. You were basically expected to work overtime. If you lived more than a couple miles from your shop, you have no work/life balance.

Very stressful because of call volume on peak days. Sometimes people will be sent home early, then a large volume of calls come in
