Pros

Strong training programs and flexible hours. Many employees seem to take pride in their work and enjoy the structure.

Cons

"Frat-like" environment with a tremendous amount of off-color and innappropriate behavior. Perfect place to work if you have a side business that requires at great deal of your focus. Be sure to keep this to yourself however as it is frowned upon. Because the buyer position is as mindless as any position you could have, I cannot stress enough the importance of having additional revenue streams to occupy your time. Working amongst this caliber of personnel (uneducated, slovenly retail castoffs) can take its toll on someone that considers themselves motivated.

Pros

Remote work, first 2 weeks of the 2 month training, offers sick time before PTO rolls in

Cons

Little to no worklife balance, toxic positivity (like when they called the meeting about taking away our bonuses “exciting news” and tried to gaslight us as to why this was a good thing), extreme micromanagement, listening to our headsets constantly without us knowing, AI rating our metrics, unrealistic expectations, you basically do 4 jobs in one (at Carvana, appraisals / selling, financial applications and documents / EPUs, sales and customer service were ALL DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS.
