Pros
Almost a recessionproof industry because people will always own cars and they will need to be fixed
Cons
The store managers in this area are store managers because of their friendships with the district managers. Most of them have little knowledge of automotive and "some or a good" amount of retail knowledge. This is a geographical area where you can work hard and prove your abilities with a track record of success and unless you play the "corporate game" or are friends with the manager/district manager, you wont make any advancements in your career.
