- Freedom and no direct supervision; I speak to my manager maybe once a week.
- Main duties are the same just about every day and can be completed in whatever order or fashion is convenient for you.
- I have time for homework and other school-related things on the clock.
- I have learned a lot about the car industry and Honda in general.
- There are many employee benefits here like discounts on vehicles, vehicle services, 401K, health insurance, holiday pay, and savings programs.
- High turnover rate here (for salespeople), so I've met a lot of people I consider friends; also counting clients.
- Very social and professional environment for the most part.
What I wish was different
- There are main duties, but also many more added. What was stated on my original job application has multiplied over the course of my time here.
- Outdated/inefficient technology
- Having to take over and learn coworker's duties.
- High turnover rate. Positions are often left empty, leaving an overwhelming workload on whomever else in inventory. I have juggled up to three peoples' duties at one time.
- Lack of respect or appreciation from management.
- This is a large building with many moving parts and people; and with that comes frequent miscommunication that can make this position very stressful.
- Random and overwhelming events/duties often will pop up that require dropping current tasks on the fly. The hourly schedule isn't always accurate as one day you may be told (no choice) to deliver a car a significant distance right before you're scheduled to leave for the day.
- Only closed two days out of the year.
- Pay is below average.
Advice
Get tasks done on time to avoid confrontations, and don't go above and beyond your duties expecting recognition.
