Pros

Pays above average for retail, part-time can receive tuition reimbursement up to $1,500.

Cons

Work outside in various weather conditions, sucks when understaffed, scheduling of staff is poor, ;unethical techniques used to sale cars, company focuses on cutting cost on everything' when cars are brought in for oil change recycled oil is utilized. Work can be daunting when every employee is not fulfilling his/her responsibilities.
