Pros

Fully stocked kitchen and meals delivered on Wed. Benefits were great and commission checks can be really good.

Cons

Abysmal management in the sales department and constant changing of goals. If a new idea didn't work immediately they would retreat and come up with something else. The goal posts and goals in general kept moving and there was 0 awareness on the sales floor,

Thank you for the review, we are glad to hear that you think our benefits are strong. Since we moved to a remote workforce in 2020, our benefits have changed from having fully stocked kitchens and meals delivered on Wednesdays to benefits like monthly credits for at-home food delivery, internet/mobile phone service coverage and fitness expenses as part of our Dynamic Workplace initiative. If you are still a current employee and are open to discussing your feedback in regards to the sales department in more detail, we'd love the opportunity to hear more about your perspective. Please reach out to HRrequests@truecar.com or contact your department's People Business Partner directly. You can also use AllVoices, our anonymous feedback tool, to communicate with our People Team and senior executives without ever disclosing your identity.

Pros

One pro - ability to travel

Cons

One year after resigning from my position with TrueCar and I'm still in a battle for my final commission. Apart from that, there are no redeeming reasons to work here. Dishonest management, high employee churn, high upper management churn, very little if any career opportunities available, and of course, commission theft. My lawyer has advised that it no longer makes sense to pursue my final commission so, at the very least, I'm happy to be done with them for good. This is among the worst places I've ever worked so if this post can spare one person from joining TrueCar it's a win. Good luck.

Pros

Pay and benefits can be good.

Cons

Terrible management, uninvolved unwilling and degrading. Pointless HR, report with or without documentation and it seems to be counted against you by management immediately. HR rep doesn't seem to take anyones complaints seriously, management proceeds with same behavior. There were many pointless events that focused on individual departments, and most events seemed centered around alcohol. Delayed transparency of impactful changes for dealerships. Advancement seems to be saved for whoever management favors. Maybe the repeat layoff cycle could potentially be avoided with less frivolous spending. What kind of company has annual layoffs!?
