Pros

There are some really nice people working there. It can be quite interesting job to do at times. Nice canteen.

Cons

The problem is the company is very old school feel to management. Who every has been there the longest gets the management role, most of the management team have been in the same role for years. Therefore, if you are in the good books of the managers you can get away with anything. Cash is king, if you are in the Sales team you get money thrown at you and can do want you what. There is conflict between the Sales team and the collection team. The company pays out commission before the hire charges are recovered , therefore the sales team can bend the rules and put out cars on hire when they shouldn't. No opportunity to development and fairly poor pay. I experienced some issues of very inappropriate behaviour which was reported to the relevant people but it was swept under the carpet. The customer service of the teams is really poor, if the customer knew what the advisor said about them behind their back they would touch the

Pros

Absolutely none! This place makes staff sick through stress

Cons

Awful place to work. Management are shocking. Have unrealistic expectations and targets. Staff end up taking time off sick for stress or quitting. They do not care about their employees and make you compete against each other. Every little move is monitored and managers will call you if you do not pick up the phone to customers immediately. Heavy work loads, low pay, unprofessional and uncaring management. Worst place I’ve ever worked!!
