Pros

Great benefits, Senior management is very knowledgable, Positive Attitudes

Cons

We were just acquired by LKQ four months ago and they really need to spend more time here so they can eliminate favoritism and drug use. Also, our employees need to be motivated!

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
