Pros

Consumers love what TRUECar does (for the most part). 100% paid Insurance benefits for entire family.

Cons

Disconnect from Field to office locations. Company still refuses to do the necessary things to be successful long term and make their Dealer customers happy. Bad reputation in the Dealer world means unpleasant experience in many instances.

Pros

* Great Location * Competitive Compensation * Upside potential with stock options * Data driven company, both inside and out * You are given autonomy to make decisions. And to be a master of your area. * Ability to feel you are making an impact to the company each day. * Not locked into a rigid growth process - I'll explain in more detail. I've worked at big companies where its almost like a pre-set path for everyone (i.e after 2 years, promoted to senior, another 5 years ->manager, etc). Here you make your path. If you are good, you will get more responsibility. If you aren't, you will languish and come back to Glassdoor in 5 months and write negative review. Basically this place is not for people that have the victim mentality (those that don't achieve something because of someone else). If you want to succeed and are good, you will succeed. In general, one's success is usually not anyone's fault but your own. And all you can ask for from a company is to give you an environment where being good and working hard can be rewarded. That's TrueCar. The rest (80%) is up to you.

Cons

* There are some people here who think "There's no I in Team, but there is a 'me'". They spend more time positioning themselves than actually producing results. Its a downside to a culture that rewards people so well. Everyone's natural self-motivated instincts kick in. if you opened up a cookie jar in a room here, you'd get a lot hands all stuck in that jar trying to get one out. Overall its a great company to work for. Every company/family/person/[substitute another entity] has problems. Key is finding one that has the most positives for you.
