Pros

If the company actually had the culture they say they have - I may not have left. There are good things, good people, and a fair culture. There’s free food sometimes. Many of the leaders are great people.

Cons

They have a way of burning through their most dedicated corporate staff by running every team at 99% capacity all the team. Strategy work is regularly pushed aside for whatever senior leaders believe is important that week. There’s never agreement- just working and reworking to eventually hit a moving target. And the collision centers? Everyone there is miserable. They feel overwhelmed with no real usable support from corporate. To the centers, the corporate office provides no real value. Compensation is quite below market average. Benefits are more expensive than other companies this size. Vacation policy is mediocre unless you’re a Director. It’s hard to negotiate a better pay rate when the bar is low across all other colleagues. And good luck trying to save some money by working from home becuase there isn’t a company-wide standard on that. It really is up to how willing or unwilling your supervisor is to be a remote. (Note: there are people who do work 100% remote, even out of state and come in periodically, but that’s almost out of the question if your manager isn’t on board. Some of these changes would be easy to introduce with increased revenue, except nobody in the marketing department knows how to collaborate with sales, operations, or insurance companies to actually move the needle.

Pros

Benefits are good. Some effort for consistency. I like staying busy and there is almost always something to do. Some people are nice.

Cons

I really wanted to like this company. It’s very corporate. It’s very involved. There is a lot of micromanagement. People really do act like they’re your friends and they are absolutely not. It’s hard to work somewhere for so much of your time where you truly can’t let your guard down or get too close. Everyone talks between shops, centers, regions, etc. There’s a lot of gossip throughout the company and even if you don’t think it goes somewhere, it does. It doesn’t matter if you are good at your job or a good person because they don’t care about that here. You can be entirely awful to people here and keep your job for years! I suppose that con is actually a pro because it makes it very difficult for someone to actually get fired from this company.
