Pros

If you don't mind working on extremely damaged bikes, very long hard days and dealing with a boss who is completely unreasonable and bullies all of his mechanics - go for it. The benefits are great.

Cons

Only female presenting person working in the whole shop. I was promised I would be trained and treated fairly as this is a DEIJ and women owned company. I have worked in male dominated fields my whole life and never been treated with such a lack of respect, empathy, and understanding. DO NOT WORK here unless you want to deal with an extremely cis male centred shop. When my boss started to bully me as he does all the men under him I reported him and was promptly put on contract, harassed daily by him until he eventually fired me the first chance he got. I was given no explanation for my termination or even the opportunity for an exit interview.

Pros

Absolutely nothing at all after what I have uncovered!

Cons

Metrics are corrupt! And I figured it out! They fire employees based on corrupt metrics! BTS is including employees regularly scheduled days off /PTO in their performance metrics and the days off are significantly lowering employees averages. Then they fire the employees stating low metrics. Also One employee consistently gets over 200 tickets per day, sometimes reaching 250 or more! while the rest of the team typically handles between 60 and 100 tickets daily. This significant disparity raises questions about the factors contributing to those higher ticket volumes and whether the work being counted is comparable across team members. As a result, since employees over all performance is based on meeting 80% of the team averages, the team average becomes distorted and corrupted especially with days off included making it difficult to accurately assess overall performance and productivity.
