Pros

Not many anymore, the only one would be manufacturer training

Cons

Workshops run poorly, Customer Service is not cared about, just making as much money off of the customers, managers and dealer principals don’t care about staff unless you bow down to their every command, the place is run by accountants and not people that care or know what they are doing. High staff turnover
