      Avoid at all costs

      Car salesman
      Current employee
      Carlsbad, CA
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Far reaching opportunity for locations and positions. So/so benefits offered.

      Cons

      Work hours are insane. Easily over 50 hours a week, and managers get upset if you don't work on your scheduled days off. Management is lacking in manager skills, unqualified people in positions of leadership. Pay plan is lacking any substance. They offer you a "draw" which is paid up front by the company, and you have to repay out of your 2nd pay period check, but they still count that as income to avoid paying minimum wage.

      Working for Autonation isn’t the best

      Sales manager
      Current employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Great car purchasing for employees

      Cons

      Pay is bad, they hit everyone’s pay if one person in the store has bad CSI, they don’t pay spiffs, no holiday parties, they’re CRM is terrible and they know it’s bad. They want reports all the time and are always calling for meetings or certification which takes you away from actually selling cars. They are just a large corporation they figured something out but they turn great stores into good stores
