What is the salary like at Advance Auto Parts?

You get to interact with some good people, whether it’s customers or coworkers.

Terrible management on all levels, low pay, bad hour flexibility, no support from higher ups when there’s an incident, expected to do most maintenance in and around store, pay increases nearly impossible, removed bonus pay for helping other stores.

Pro/Commercial upper leadership is a joke at best, complete authoritarian leadership style

Full of false promises, no work life balance, massive pay cuts to earnings potential, only worried about taking care of their share holders and upper management's salaries, no ability to move up as they continue to rid the company of any valuable leadership positions and decide not to allow any back fills

No pros as much so all good

Good work life balance and good pay

Enjoy delivering auto parts to our commercial customers and developing meaningful relationships to increase sales. Learning new things such as inventory management and working with our retail customers.

Pay is low for what you do. Started at $13.15 an hour, got a whopping .40 cent raise in March of 2025 and got another .45 cent raise in October of 25 due to state minimum wage rate hike. My District Manager doesn’t even know my name. Totally ignores anyone beneath him in the store. I have spent 35 years in senior management at a major airline retiring in 2022 and have never seen anything like this management style. I have spent countless hours of my own time trying to make our small splice of the business a little better. For instance, creating a map of the hub area to help new employees locate the vast amount of parts in the store. Developed a New Drivers Training Aid to assist them in the day to day operations of our responsibilities. Developed a map of our delivery area to assist our new drivers in locating our commercial customers quickly and efficiently. I did this on my own time without even a thank you from management.

A Good culture, good pay,
