Pros

It used to be fun

Cons

Current LGM and ASM have zero management and people skills, micro manage all the time. Sales managers are lazy, arrogant and they favor certain sales consultant. CarMax is still paying $150.00 commission since the company was started.

Carmax is an o.k place to work. LGM has to much authority in hiring middle management. Picks friends over more competenet managers.

Pros

good culture, very easy to work as an hourly associate or in sales. Bend over backwards for special circumstances and hourly associates.

Cons

Tout perks for managers but actualy manage these managers well within the policy. Opendoor policy is a joke if you want to advnce with the company. Don't seem to care about keeping their best and brightest managers after they invest tons of money in tryin to recruit the best.
