Pros

Ok, job while in school, better than fast food. I was able to arrange my work schedule (for the most part) so that I could go to school during the week and work in the store on nights and weekends. Some of the people who have been there a while are pretty nice and knowledgeable. I suppose if you have nothing else going for you, it is easy to move up into management and beyond if you have any sort of intelligence. Compared to the other people in the company, it doesn't take much to be a superstar. Thats it.

Kontras

Everyone is an idiot. Customers, management, everyone. It is the nature of the business, since you work with lots of angry customers. Many stores are very unorganized with ridiculous rules. Most of the people you work with and depend on call in sick frequently or just stop coming to work with no notice. There is a big shortage of managers, so there are frequent calls on days off to cover shifts that others flake on. There is a big gap in wages, manager will lie to your face if they can get away with it. You will be paid the minimum they think you will accept, even if someone less competent makes more.

Pros

It's a great way to expand your automotive knowledge. The stuff I learned while working there is nearly invaluable. Some of the guys that worked with me really knew their stuff and always shared. Also, getting parts at commercial/wholesale cost is AWESOME.. saves so much money. They were pretty flexible with schedules and time off. You have the ability to become ASE certified, at company expense.

Kontras

Management sucks. They provide next-to-no support or help. I'm not sure what idiot was in charge of purchasing, but an auto parts store should sell auto parts. Most of the time, we'd be selling tents, go-karts, mini-refrigerators, all kinds of frivolous off-brand junk instead of stocking more auto parts. And these frivolous items they wanted us to sell were generally garbage and 98% of them were returned. It was nice when 3 go-karts are returned on a slow-sales Sunday and your system showed a LOSS of 1200 dollars.. No profit at all, just pure loss. Then, Monday morning, the incompetent district manager would be calling, wondering why your store showed such a loss. They also hire people with NO automotive knowledge. Some of the employees didn't even know what kind of car they drove.
