Pros

Little knowledge into the industry.

Cons

Company only cares about company not employees. Hoursbyou work are ridiculous for the amount of pay you get, pay is horrible the commission is a joke. Before the buyout it was a good company and now is restructured multiple times a year in management through all the areas. The prices you have to sell to customers is outrageous compared to som competitors. Is cheaper than dealer however but not by much.

Pros

The competitive pay. Thats about it

Cons

The whole guarantee system. Management, equipment. To anyone who decides to go to pepboys as a flat rate tech, they changed the guarantee system to where if you're not efficient, you only get what you flagged. So if management is bad, the location is bad and its slow, it gets rough. Prior it was a guaranteed pay based on you hitting 40 hours. Their excuse was people "abusing" which is really backwards thinking. If you're starting out, I recommend Firestone. The pay might be slightly worse but you'll have a guarantee of at least 30 hours. Also management at my location seems content only doing tires and flat repairs that hit budget. All while I have to come to them to see if my ticket got sold or if the fleet company approved of the work.
