Pros

Some of the "peasants" that I had the amazing opportunity to work with

Cons

It's a very classist company. I worked at a Firestone and most of the techs were amazing, and the service manager was awesome. But if we were slammed and someone from corporate needs their daughter's car oil changed the store manager was quick to brown-nose and try to make everyone else bend over backwards for someone who was retired from corporate. And no matter how much progress you make professionally, you'll be beaten down verbally and mentally by the store manager even if other people are telling you you're doing great and improving. And if you ever need any help with anything and reach out to HR, just assume your issue won't get resolved. After all, you're just a worker ant they couldn't care less about.

Pros

Stable work - buses on the road every day, so tire service tends to be more predictable than some other retail work. Mechanical experience - You'll gain experience with heavy-duty vehicles, commercial tires, fleet operations, safety procedures, and potentially CDL-related skills. Physically demanding - Frequent lifting of tires, pushing heavy equipment, bending, kneeling, and working around large vehicles are regular parts of the job.

Cons

Repetitive labor - Much of the work involves mounting, balancing, and repairing large tires repeatedly throughout a shift. Safety risks - Working with heavy commercial tires and transit vehicles requires strict adherence to safety procedures and PPE requirements.
