Pros

No experience needed, benefits and pay are good for what the job is, training process is straightforward, great place to get automotive experience, can move up quickly if you work hard. Coworkers are typically 'car guys' if that's your thing, work hours are good

Cons

very taxing and dirty work especially if you do any under the car work. job becomes less about cars and revolves around sales if you want to move up. Small team so manager and coworkers will make or break your experience. great for entry level experience but if you want more advanced work (diagnostics, repair, electrical) other than changing lightbulbs and fluid flushes, look elsewhere. job is entry level blue collar and so you see mostly men, either teens or early 20s, and the workplace culture that comes with working in an autoshop

Pros

You start at a decent pay

Cons

I have been working almost constantly 6 day work weeks. Management won't check footage for proof of success but will check enough of the footage to accuse team members. In the same not they won't show the footage to you that they base their accusations off of. Corporate visits my location once a week at minimum and stands in the middle of our work space without consideration of our work flow or while wearing proper personal protective equipment. Then there is the constant promise of promotions without any fallow through; a tactic to keep us enduring the cons using false promises.
