Pros

The parts discount was nice. Even if you were part-time, they offered a benefits package.

Cons

If you're a driver, the chance of being promoted is slim. Most of the managers were hired from outside the company, and the ones that were, were not very knowledgeable. I worked with five different stores within a 30 mile range, and out of the five stores, one of the managers knew a lot about cars. The others knew less than the sales associates. In one of the stores, which was my home store, I ended up doing the manager's work for him. I left that store to take another job, but I wanted to stay on as a part-time worker. I moved out of the area after I found out I was pregnant, and transferred to a store I had worked for before. I was let go after they found out I was pregnant.

Pros

It’s a pretty easy job, very fun people to work with. Hours as a driver are pretty consistent.

Cons

The pay isn’t great. It would be nice if the drivers were making at least $17 or $18 an hour. Also benefits don’t extend to health insurance only dental and vision if you are only considered part-time. Anybody that isn’t the GM, CPP, and RPP are considered part-time, regardless of the hours you get.
