TrueCar Reviews

Pros

There are a lot of companies that talk a big game about opportunities for employees, having a voice, work/life balance, etc. TrueCar actually walks the walk. If you want to work for a company where you can actually make a difference, grow, and disrupt a dinosaur of an industry, you're in the right place. Benefits are amazing, it's a completely remote workforce environment, and the company recognizes that people are just that - people and not just a means to an end. In addition, we have an executive team that's engaged and cares deeply about the employee experience.

Cons

The auto industry is in a bit of a slump at the moment with macroeconomic issues continuing longer than expected. These issues have led to tighter budgets which impacts our ability to be as aggressive as we'd like to be in investing in new tools.

Pros

Intelligent, hard-working colleagues who look to help each other grow

Cons

The long-term outlook for automotive marketplace providers is somewhat unstable given a movement in the automotive industry towards D2C

Pros

People there were really nice

Cons

Company seems stagnant with no future

Pros

I am impressed by the team's passion to win this category. The company is doing its best to provide clarity on goals and communicate with the employees regularly. Being in a remote environment can be challenging to get information, however, I feel informed. Benefits and salaries are good, perks are as well.

Cons

Not for the faint. You have to be ready to provide impact. Teams are focused on what they need to get accomplished and will be looking to you for your POV. We are in the midst of transforming into a product-led company - and everyone's resource counts.

Pros

Flexible work hours and took care of employees

Cons

At the time, getting new products ready and out, but looks like now they’ve done a better job

Pros

They supply the cleaning supplies. No need for me to buy them.

Cons

Work can be a little too much some times.

Pros

The perks were basic but nice compared to other companies similar to TC. If you've worked in tech before then they're just mediocre. Depending on the team, the lower level positions are really nice to be a part of, good team members, decent work life balance etc.

Cons

Leadership and Management is really bad. There's also a really toxic environment where a Sr. Leader had to message multiple groups to stop have side conversations about others because word got out. The pay is also pretty bad, they claim market research etc, but my coworkers and i all make different salaries despite having similar experience and living in the same area. They made a lot of promises, don't deliver, and HR is really really rude. HR is essentially a second internal company that has no good relation with HMs and does what they want. It seems if you're of a certain demographic you get paid more than others :)

Pros

- Modern stack - Helpful engineers - Lightning talks allow for learning and teaching others - Advanced internal tooling - Great benefits & perks - Fun problems to solve - Allows for full-stack engineering

Cons

- Heavy attrition - Deadlines are not uncommon - The chip shortage is making it difficult for the company to progress - Limited ability to move into management

Pros

- Excellent benefits & perks - Best workstation setup I've ever had.. especially since I'm working from home. I have ergonomic everything + a standing desk and it makes SUCH a difference. - Incredibly smart, hardworking, & fun teammates The main reason I like working here is the people & the culture. The work can definitely be set up in an agile way (depending on your dept) and priorities can shift, but for the most part, I've found that super interesting and have learned more in my career here than twice as long at other companies.

Cons

Personally, I don't really care about the car industry at all so it can be hard for me to get excited about the trajectory of the business but other than that I've had a very positive experience.

Pros

True Car has a Great Company Culture

Cons

I haven't run into any negatives at the moment.
