Pros

I cannot think of any at this time.

Cons

You had better learn how to speak their language and expect to use the lingo I order to move up and keep your job in the company. They will throw you in a position without complete training. They will fire anyone at will if one is not a "Carmax" fit. Your life would be better working elsewhere.

Pros

Remote work, first 2 weeks of the 2 month training, offers sick time before PTO rolls in

Cons

Little to no worklife balance, toxic positivity (like when they called the meeting about taking away our bonuses “exciting news” and tried to gaslight us as to why this was a good thing), extreme micromanagement, listening to our headsets constantly without us knowing, AI rating our metrics, unrealistic expectations, you basically do 4 jobs in one (at Carvana, appraisals / selling, financial applications and documents / EPUs, sales and customer service were ALL DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS.
