Pros

Problem Solving customer needs, Fun environment for the Auto enthusiast

Cons

No work/life balance. Management has no control of own or store teams schedule, Procedures change weekly (new procedures are not given a chance to work or fail). Too many "evaluations". DM's and RVP's each have their own agenda (no communication) Pay is not worth the Hours Managers need to work.

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.
