Pros

Always ahead of the change curve and will prosper when the big disruption happens. Pay is good and you never get short changed. Support is phenomenal. The top people on the corporate level are superb human beings you would want to work for. They have made many prosperous. A great laid out career path whether at the dealership level or corporate level. Phenomenal support and education tools and metrics.

Cons

Sometimes too many middle managers at corporate. Change for the sake of change, but they usually realize and quit the program when they figure it out.

They promote from within.

Pros

I would like to start by saying Ken Garff is one of the best companies I have ever worked for, hands down. It’s a family owned business and they care about their people. My experience and the trend I see is, they like to promote within, so if you are looking for a company to grow with and build a career, you will love this company.

Cons

There isn’t much to complain about that is for sure, but If I have to fill this category, I will say that it is the hours. Some days you have to put more time in, but the money is well worth it.

Pros

The salesmen and other employees are very personable and like to get along with everyone. Managers are approachable for the most part and are willing to get along with all of the employees in the dealership. If you like cars the job is pretty fun. Benefits are okay.

Cons

The pay is barely above minimum wage, It's difficult to get time off because they want you to dedicate your life to a car dealership. Managers don't necessarily care if you've worked hard or not. If they see you talk with another employee and laugh they think you are relaxing on your paid work time and automatically discredit you for any hard work you have done in the past. We were told there was a pay raise after 90-days, after those 90-days the managers told us that they hadn't really been paying attention and they hadn't taken the time to really solidify our knowledge of what we needed to do. Because of that they told us they were going to watch us for the next month to see if we really deserved a raise. Eventually it came but the sheer ignorance irritated us. Lot Techs come and go, they don't care. If you have real goals... you'll be fine working somewhere else.
