Veterans Day Luncheon

Pros

Each CarSense location hosted a luncheon for all associates on Veterans Day. We recognized and honored the Veterans in our ranks. It was a huge success, many associates were talking about it all day. Thank you CarSense for doing this, it was much appreciated by our Veterans and all associates !

Cons

Nothing comes to mind right now.

I couldn't agree more. I don't know why we haven't done this before, but I can say emphatically we will continue to honor all Veterans and any one who has family in the Military. I loved when the poem was read... very touching. Thanks for the post.

Decent but declining

Recommend

Pros

Hours are decent ( except on Saturday's) There are health benefits, but not very good. Company allows us to provide a quality service to our customers without the typical antics of a used car dealership. Integrity is of utmost importance which is well respected.

Cons

Saturday hours are brutal ( 8am - 7pm). Micromanagement is at an all time high. Culture is changing for the worse week by week.

I appreciate your feedback. It's not every day we receive a review like the one you left. I am really concerned that the sales team in Chester Springs is not receiving the actual data. Since opening Glen Mills, our leads have gone up in Chester Springs, not down as you stated. Additionally, Chester Springs now has almost 800 vehicles to offer our customers because of the opening of Glen Mills. They normally have 500, but the 300 vehicles available in Glen Mills has equated to more available inventory that we as a company can offer the public. I would like to better understand the micromanaging that you referenced. It%E2%80%99s not how CarSense manages and if it%E2%80%99s going on, I would like more info. Please drop me an email or stop by so we can discuss it further. I get sales. Sometimes there are good months and sometimes there are bad months. To say the %E2%80%9CCulture is changing for the worse week by week%E2%80%9D is a huge statement. I implore you to connect with me so we can properly address these concerns. We can%E2%80%99t correct something if we do not know exactly what it is or where its coming from. I look forward to doing a deep dive so you feel better and we can reinforce what should be happening on the showroom floors. Thanks again for the post.

Good Company

Pros

Most of the employees there are quality people, which them a pleasure to work with. We are very busy year round, so there is plenty of work and overtime available if employees want to make some extra money. There is opportunity to move around in the company to find a good fit and for advancement. They do a lot of extra things like buy lunch for employees working on Saturdays, bring in an ice cream truck on sweltering summer days and they do a pog roast for the whole store once a year. They also have fun days where a few employees from each department get to take a break from work and go do something fun like go carting, golfing or going to the movies.

Cons

It is a very go go fast paced environment which can get tiring after a while.

Great post, thank you. We do Go..go..go.. around here, that's for sure. It makes the day go by quicker I'm told... We value all our associates - they are our number one concern. We do all the extra things you mentioned to show we care. Some companies say they care, we like to think we show it everyday. Thanks again.
