Pros

Excellent work environment, helpful managers

Cons

It only takes one or two customer reviews to affect you negatively. Disproportionate to the number of customers you handle.

Dear former employee, thank you for sharing your experience with us in Phoenix. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the work environment and found our managers helpful during your time with Team Orange. We also hear your feedback on the impact of customer reviews on individual performance metrics. We understand this can feel disproportionate at times, and it's valuable input as we continuously review how we measure and support our teams. We wish you all the best in your next role. Best regards

Pros

It's an unrecognized job by management, they don't care about you unless you make them more money so they get bonuses. All they care about is performance metrics, no matter what you do to your co-workers.

Cons

Expected to work in an outdated color arrangement that is mostly black. When it's 100 degrees out, on hot asphalt, not ideal. They expect you to log the tiniest damage so that they can bill the customer. Do they not take depreciation on the cars. Their fuel gages are wonky and don't work right. I believe they are charging customers for fuel when they shouldn't.
