Spanish Fork, UT (US)

Current Employee – been working at Jiffy Lube part-time for less than a year

ProsGood standardized training program. Good health insurance for mgmt

ConsTreat you like garbage. Even store managers get treated like they are nothing and can be replaced within the hour.

Advice to Senior ManagementTreat them as if you respect them. It has been proven if your team is behind you sales are greater than if they are only doing the job out of fear.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Conroe, TX (US)

Former Employee – worked at Jiffy Lube full-time for less than a year

ProsLearning environment, if you choose to learn as much as you can.

ConsQuality of management.

Was hired full-time, but only got 30 hours most, then dropped to 20 and then before i quit was getting 12.

Advice to Senior ManagementIf you promise somebody full-time work, don't turn around and work them 20 or less hours a week. You're lucky i didn't sue your ass for that Allied Lube. (Franchise owner of Jiffy Lube in the area)

North Charleston, SC (US)

Current Employee – been working at Jiffy Lube full-time for less than a year

ProsProfit sharing for mgmt, depending on store size and volume. Coworkers are good people. Some customers are very nice people, and you feel like you make long time friends.

ConsOther customers are downright nasty. they have no idea how to treat people, and are extraordinarily rude. If you make any attempts to call them out, and just try to have them treat you like another member of the same planet, upper management finds out, and reacts before finding out all of the story. In this way, it is kind of a joke.

Other than this, for the technician level staff, theres no incentive to do well, other than keeping your job.

Advice to Senior ManagementBe PROACTIVE rather than reactive. Either find a better way to pay your technicians, or incentivize them in some way.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Peabody, MA (US)

Current Employee – been working at Jiffy Lube full-time for more than a year

ProsNo background check. Learning experience.

ConsDoesn't offer benefits. Safety glasses give me a headache and anxiety. On your feet all day with no 15 min brakes and only 1 half hour break during a 12 hr shift

Advice to Senior Managementthe safety glasses are more of a pain in the ass than a benefit

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
