DriveSafe Driving Schools Reviews

Center managers are glorified sales people, without any of the sales perks. Corporate management will provide you with sales goals, without any sale incentives (no bonuses). You have no real control over the hiring of individuals in your center (be it drivers or assistants), your budget, marketing, handing out promotions, etc, all of this is handled at a corporate level. You are honestly going to make more money as a manager at a fast food place than here, and even work less hours. Expect to spend most of your time behind the phone selling packages for DriveSafe & Baron Education. Upper management is full of nepotism, they will promote their own family and friends, don't be surprised if they hire a buddy or family member and then just place them as your employee without any input.

The drive instructors are the most important people to the organization in terms of driving revenue yet the company treats them like outsiders. Partially because they are always out doing drives. Everyone will be your boss, and logistics are unreasonable. The drives have to be 2 hours (by the state) They schedule the lessons back to back with no time in between.Yet the state of CO says there has to be 3-5 minutes between drives and you will have to also give a brief report, use the restroom and meet your next student but some how the drive must be a full two hours. Also in the 9 years I was there instructor safety was never mentioned or brought up about the job. You can literally be killed being a drive instructor. not sure they cared.
