Pros

It is a large international company and so there is opportunity across the country for jobs.

Cons

This is a very "Corporate" type business meaning NON-PERSONAL. The regional managers tend to only last about a year on average in their position before leaving the company. That is because of the stress caused by the yo-yo's sitting behind a desk in Chicago telling their subordinates that they are doing everything wrong. This of course trickles all the way down the food chain. Managers beware. For two years I successfully ran one of the busiest shops in San Diego (One of Midas' better markets) and my salary was still some $20K short of what their job listing promised. My time at Midas was so thoroughly unenjoyable that I cringe whenever I drive by any Midas repair shop - AND I changed my industry after being in it for 10 years..

Pros

Each day is a different experience faced with new challenges that provide great opportunities to learn and expand knowledge. My position requires me to wear several hats in any given day - from Human Resource to Property Management to Financial Reporting.

Cons

Currently, the only factor that concerns me is the economy and the future of auto repair. Midas has become a leader in oil changes versus a leader in brakes and exhaust.

Pros

Good pricing on auto parts for your personal vehicles, but the franchise will require you to pay cost plus 15% on items purchased through the company.

Cons

Poor management, lack of respect and follow through with discipline, one $1.00 raise in two years with no sign of getting more, no retirement plan.
