Pros

Benefits kick in after only working for 30 days. Clean look throughout the stores, friendly environment. No pressure sales or need for playing typical car sales mind-games.

Cons

Mid-level managers often disagree with their corporate policy yet are too scared to speak up. They just do what their upper management tells them even though they don't like what they're being told and don't have the guts to do outside the box.

Pros

Give great feedback and always training. 6 weekend to train as a sales person. Paid training then pure commission. Ok

Cons

Really just a number anyone and every one us replaceable. No sence of loyalty towards the employee s. Hire more people so it us harder to stay on top pay plan.
