Pros

There no pros just pain

Cons

Corporate will cut everyone's pay with little notice if you don't accept you're gone. They don't care about their employees just as long as they make money. No support from upper management they just expect you to sell everything on every car when you might get 3 cars in a day. They don't run ads and expect the shops to be magically busy do not work here

Pros

Through my career I have learned a lot on the automotive industry.

Cons

Corporate found a way to cut payroll by approximately $1k monthly to former assistant managers by eliminating the overtime associated with the position and eliminating the position , renamed it and lowered the hourly rate and put them under " commission ". Results...many guys looking for a new job cause with cost of living constantly increasing pay went down drastically plus most stores are understaffed but corporate keeps pushing for productivity, really bad work environment.
