Pros

None, I'm not kidding. Actually, Salary. They pay over market. Their HR department is a bunch of pushovers.

Cons

That place is hell. I wish I never worked there. DO NOT. I repeat DO NOT. Work there. Any doubt? Ask to shadow someone that does something similar to you for one day. That place is a disaster, they have to use all external recruiters because they can't keep people in fast enough. 6 months makes you a veteran. No workers is right way too many directors. I don't get it. They're also super unprofessional. Sott Hansesn (COO) thinks his Ari Gold, swore at my coworker in a meeting with our department. All in all, if you can flip burgers at McDonalds for $8/hour do it because you'll be happier than making $200k at TrueCar.

Challenging and Tough Road Ahead

Pros

Decent compensation, autonomy to run at projects, some great colleagues.

Cons

90% of the company is all sizzle and no steak, the other 10% keep it on life support. Lots of buzz words get tossed around but nothing gets done. Failing managers who get defensive when something is challenged. Zero accountability, no career direction, no merit to promotions, highly paid seniors that add little value, toxic culture.

Location is nice and a few good people who are sticking it out

Cons

Politics and too much focus on what dealers want at the expense of the customer experience
