CarMax reviews

Management micro manages and you are not given a true definition of where to go in terms of growth. Even after you have shown success in your current position it is strictly politics. You should be compensated more on the sales side we have only received one pay increase in 20 years.

The caf team's egos are so big they can no longer see how bad some of their solutions are. The need for 24/7 support arises from poor design and implementation. They don't bother to do basic design good practices like normalization. The developer who is on call fixes crappy code by manually running jobs or running untested code right in production without even backing data up. It's also a lot like swimming with sharks. They have created a culture of the in group and the out group. My manager actually talked to me about my co-workers weaknesses in a way I found extremely unprofessional. Stay away from the finance group but I think some of the other teams are better. Carmax is kinda sad they were cutting edge but they are falling behind and every competitor is now doing the things that used to give carmax competitive advantage. They have grown into large corporation that's slow to act.
