Pros

Pay is decent. That is all.

Cons

Management, communication, heavy flow of calls. Decent pay. Shady Management. Heavy flow of inbound calls 24/7. Micromanagement. Advancement is non existent. Score card is pushed but is impossible with all the difficult calls from customers. Also remote work is very hard to obtain here yet when someone contracts covid management is absolutely silent and asks employees to not tell coworkers which is inhumane and unethical. Get your money and go this is not a place to stay at. I left after a year. You’re at an offsite call center taking calls for dealerships across the US and management has minimal knowledge on what to tell customers. People call in to speak directly with the dealership but the dealerships do not answer which leads to every call being an angry call and you rarely speak with happy customers because they’re all upset. Do not trust HR, directors, team leads, or any senior agents they have all been there forever and have their own alliances hence to why advancement is non existent. No overtime.

Pros

You can make good money doing this. (60k-80k avg) You can learn a lot about sales and beyond through experience. You can make a ton of connections that will last longer than you plan on working there.

Cons

Favoritism at it's peak. If you are okay with running to buy management coffee and lunches in exchange for leads then this is the job for you! (Yes buying with YOUR money) Management will hide your commissions from you until they are ready to actually pay you. I've also caught them manipulating the numbers so that they don't have to pay you as much. There is absolutely 0 team work between departments so if you sell a car that still needs to go through the shop, be prepared to fight with the foreman, technicians, parts, reconditioning crew, and detail crew just to make sure it stays moving.
