Pros

Very team-oriented and work exceptionally well with school and life schedules. Managers are hands-on and maintain the definition of the "open-door" policy.

Cons

The Las Vegas (Sahara) Inventory department is located outside the building. 100+ degrees in the summer and occasional 20-60 degrees in the winter make for very unpleasant working conditions. Very limited upward mobility in the service department, unless willing to transfer to another location where a position is needed.

Pros

Remote work, first 2 weeks of the 2 month training, offers sick time before PTO rolls in

Cons

Little to no worklife balance, toxic positivity (like when they called the meeting about taking away our bonuses “exciting news” and tried to gaslight us as to why this was a good thing), extreme micromanagement, listening to our headsets constantly without us knowing, AI rating our metrics, unrealistic expectations, you basically do 4 jobs in one (at Carvana, appraisals / selling, financial applications and documents / EPUs, sales and customer service were ALL DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS.
