Pros
I accepted this position and it came with a 25k pay-cut, however, I feel that the long term benefits are well worth it. As a MT you learn from the ground up, first dealing with CSR issues and then slowly transitioning to back office work as well. After 4 months of consecutive good sales, you can qualify for the written test for initial advancement. Once you have passed that, 30 days later you are eligible to take the HMI test (oral board) with your regional manager and another area manage. Completion of this takes you to M1 status and if your BM approves it with the area manager you can make ABM and then you wait for a vacancy so you can get your own branch if the area manager signs off on it.
Cons
Cleaning cars in a shirt and tie is a bit much but it is what it is...everyone starts here at that level.
