Pros

Salaries are low, but reasonable. The Regional Managers are the real nutcases, but have so many stores that you see them very rarely.

Cons

Company policies are established at the top, but selectively enforced. The good ole boy nature of the company seems to allow some regions to operate significantly differently than others. If a policy seems to get in the way of regionals making more money, they just ignore it at the expense of the local management team.

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.
