Pros

working with customers and selling parts

Cons

You will not be successful working for advance unless you are willing to be talked to like a child. I have never worked in a more poorly managed environment! They have part time employees working 39 hours a week and full time up to 50.... Is that balance? or is that a manager taking advantage of good people that need a job

A lot of schedule flexibility

Cons

There is a lot of favoritism/bad management, especially in the DC that I work in. (DC-41)

Pros

It’s a pretty easy job, very fun people to work with. Hours as a driver are pretty consistent.

Cons

The pay isn’t great. It would be nice if the drivers were making at least $17 or $18 an hour. Also benefits don’t extend to health insurance only dental and vision if you are only considered part-time. Anybody that isn’t the GM, CPP, and RPP are considered part-time, regardless of the hours you get.
