Pros

Slightly flexible schedule, I have a small child that just so happened like to stay up late than get up early, so evening shift worked out for me. Liked helping ppl, I helped people by just knowing things not working myself to death

Cons

Hours, Pay, Raises, Upper level management you name it. These people are set behind the desk, never turned a bolt in their life, car idiots, that think they know what the working man wants when he walks into a parts store. It's not project packs and that same stupid featured item of the month. It's low prices, availability, and a competent person to help them.

Pros

It’s a pretty easy job, very fun people to work with. Hours as a driver are pretty consistent.

Cons

The pay isn’t great. It would be nice if the drivers were making at least $17 or $18 an hour. Also benefits don’t extend to health insurance only dental and vision if you are only considered part-time. Anybody that isn’t the GM, CPP, and RPP are considered part-time, regardless of the hours you get.
