Pros

Lots of extensive and value added training. Tons of customer traffic. Busy compared to industry. Proprietary systems are awesome. On-line financing with specific CarMax lenders is second to none.

Cons

Sales managers are elevated with little to no training or background to be a Real managers of people. Managers should be able to motivate, mentor and "feel" the situation as if it was them. The average store has 50% of the mgmt staff that are only breathing and pulling in a salary. Sales consultants are 100% commission and they make the same per car sale that they did in 1993? Managers get a salary equal to or greater than the average SC average monthly pay. We average less than $20 per hour. We put up with a LOT of stuff!
