Pros

In sales you are truly in control of your paycheck if you work hard and smart you can earn a decent living. Most of the people you work with are truly good people.

Cons

Management micro manages and you are not given a true definition of where to go in terms of growth. Even after you have shown success in your current position it is strictly politics. You should be compensated more on the sales side we have only received one pay increase in 20 years.

Pros

Remote work, first 2 weeks of the 2 month training, offers sick time before PTO rolls in

Cons

Little to no worklife balance, toxic positivity (like when they called the meeting about taking away our bonuses “exciting news” and tried to gaslight us as to why this was a good thing), extreme micromanagement, listening to our headsets constantly without us knowing, AI rating our metrics, unrealistic expectations, you basically do 4 jobs in one (at Carvana, appraisals / selling, financial applications and documents / EPUs, sales and customer service were ALL DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS.
