Pros

Great company brand and has potential to be an awesome company.

Cons

BAD MANAGEMENT... Managers has lack of knowledge, no team morale, no family values for others and no team connection. While there is the opportunity to work from home and others were released early for the holidays, management made employees come into the office. While it's flu season and quite a few people in the office were sick, management made the employees come to work risking everyone else's health. The lack of empathy for others and sympathy for those who need it is at an all time HIGH with management. Last but not least, management makes decisions for the team that strategically makes no sense, which cause more harm than help.

Pros

At the time of writing, I have worked for Napa for 9 years. I can say with a great deal of experience that the fellow employees will make your day. Easy people to work with all around. Something about the shared struggle of working for NAPA will really bring a group of folks together. Customers who come into a NAPA come for a reason. I find this to be a much different experience from other auto parts stores. Customers know what they are talking about, and that makes the job all the easier. Hours are consistent almost to a fault, but you will ceratily get at least your 40 hours.

Cons

When I first started with NAPA, they genuinely cared about their employees(gift cards on bday, anniversary lunch, anniversary gift, holiday bonuses, company-wide holiday parties). That is all gone. All management you will have personal contact with has ZERO authority to do ANYTHING. Do not expect a merit-based raise, or even a yearly raise(no raises in 2 years despite $2.3B in net profit for 2025). It seems to take an act of god to fire employees who literally do not do their job. DO NOT CLIMB THE LADDER. The higher you get in this company, the more you will regret it.
