Pros

There actually aren’t any. In fact if Group 1 buys your store, prepare to have your pay cut to the bare bones. See the con section for more detail.

Cons

Are there any? The 401k contribution is peanuts and the cost of benefits is so much that my colleagues can’t afford to opt in to them. This is all due to the fact that the pay plan is so horrible that we’re literally being starved out of a job with shelter on the chopping block as well but hey, the company stock price is soaring! This is what wage theft looks like! Historically, Automotive Sales Associates got paid very well. Not anymore and Group 1 established a “new normal” by taking even more money from their workers!

Pros

Great company Decent pay if selling well Nice, clean showrooms Great programs for progression

Cons

Not sure about other brands but JLR is a big big headache. Constant cancellations from customers due to insurance issues. Cars always going wrong, customers will tell you they won’t come back. As a Salesman it doesn’t matter how great the service is if the product constantly letting us down. Managers have favourites and sometimes the quite non favoured ones don’t get to eat…
