Pros

Years ago this was a great company to work for. Employees actually new each other.

Cons

When the new CEO Bill Carter started everyone really liked him. As years went on he turned out to be a backstabber. About 100 jobs went to India 2 years ago. After that even more lay offs. In January 50 more, great way to start a new year. That was the worse layoff the company had. It really bother a lot of employees. One of the recent reviews stated that the employees that were let go were fired. It was just a big off because the company is not making money so they have to cut salaries. Had nothing to do with change. Any good review is written by the HR dept to cover themselves. Just a warning this company might be moving in one year tho another location so that means more jobs might be cut and sent to KY where salaries are cheaper because no way will they move all the employees to another building and pay high rent.

Thank you for providing us with your thoughts. Feedback such as this helps us understand the thoughts of the entire team. Our industry is going through change, which has driven difficult decisions necessary to ensure that we remain one of the premier B2B media companies. We understand that this change can be difficult. While only time will tell, we believe the steps taken have established a solid foundation for the growth of the business. We do want to assure you that neither the HR team nor any other function writes posted reviews. Those reviews are by other employees (former and current) exercising their right to share their point of view – just like you. We welcome all the reviews since they make us better. Finally, there is potential for our New York office to relocate within the city, although no decision has been made at this time. We are simply managing the cost of real estate in New York City. Thank you again for your feedback.

Pros

The biggest pro was the opportunity to learn within a large dealership group environment. Working for a company with multiple rooftops provided exposure to a variety of accounting processes and operations.

Cons

Training and onboarding were limited due to the workload and staffing structure. Controllers were overseeing a high number of dealerships, which made hands-on training and support difficult at times.
