Conlan Tire

Conlan Tire has been a dream come true for me. From the beginning they have treated me with respect honesty and support. When I interviewed, I did so with three different senior employees that have been with Conlan tire from the very start. I was blown away with the way that they wanted to know about my morals and my family life. A day after the phone calls and the interviews, I received a phone call from the owner himself Alex Conlan. He expressed to me how he wanted to create a business not only for the customer but for the employee and their families. I have been in this business my entire life with three different companies, and have held upper management positions. I have never seen or heard of a company of this magnitude when it comes to caring about who you are as a person and how your career/income effects your family life. In the beginning I believed that it was too good to be true, a five-day work week Saturdays and Sundays with my family, paid time off and an amazing salary. But when I received a phone call from the owner , he sold me on Conlan Tire. Alex wasn't trying to sell me on working for the company , he simply talked to me like a human being and ended up selling his self. In today's age you can't/won't find a better company to work for. The moral and ethical values behind this company and the people that work for it is second to none. They really do treat you like family. They have a passion for what they do and believe that every employee is valuable, to the success of Conlan Tire. My family and I are very grateful for the endless opportunities and support Conlan tire continues to provide us with. This is not just a job it is a career and God willing I will retire here!

Disarray. That's the best way to describe this place. From the "onboarding" to a typical work day, is just a big mess. Starting pay is decent, but some days there's no work and other days it's nonstop and seems like everyone is in a hurry. Rushing a tire/wheel job is a big red flag. If a tire assembly fails because a technician is rushing to get a customer out the door, then it all comes back on the technician and the organization. Aside from work gloves, there's no hearing or eye protection and it takes 3 weeks to get a set of uniforms, so expect to get dirty working there. All the work trucks are trashed inside the cabs and most if not all have check engine lights on or require basic maintenance like oil changes but even that gets neglected. If you're new to working in the automotive or tire industry, don't expect too much in terms of formal training as there is no training criteria to follow. There are plenty of other more established fleet mobile tire and service companies out there, but this isn't one of them. I hope they can get someone in there to straighten that place out and run it like an actual business.

A typical day at work starts from sending and receiving emails about orders, pending po# , a road call from a customer., In another case you have a fleet inspection scheduled to and visit different locations from a single customer or different customers as well., you also have meetings scheduled with the clients or with the company to follow up about your sales on what you need to be more successful we talked about our pains and the customer pains so we can figure out how to attack those etc. the most enjoyable part about my jobs is meeting people helping people creating the good relationship always be there for the customer even on  your days off., on my last 25 years I've learned so much about the tire industry from the smallest tire to the biggest tire size. including retreads, service manager, Store Manager, Service Tech, Road service., the hardest part of the job is not having inventory or not being able to assist the customer when they need it 

On a typical work day, it takes forever to get anything completed. Nothing is ever completed on time and the little man gets blamed for every mistake, even those made by management. There is a high turn over rate, the company does not support their employees and they refuse to give raises. They will fire employees at the drop of a hat. The only things I learned in my short employment there, is that they will use you and get rid of you if it's convenient for them. Management is not very knowledgeable and seemingly incompetent at their jobs with the exception of the general manager. Upper level corporate management is completely clueless when it comes to what goes on in the stores, they have a habit of making bad decisions that negatively affect hourly staff. The hardest part of the job is having to deal with incompetent people. The most enjoyable part was having weekends off most of the time.

It's a hit or miss experiencing because the turn over rate is high at this company. People come and go so does management. So your progress isn't recorded or viewed properly since management comes and goes. If they had better structure and assigned work properly things may have went smoothly. The team I worked with was good guys but we shared so much rolls. As a road service tech, I was given assignment beyond and below my skill set and pay grade. You are road technician, wear house stocker, waste disposal and delivery guy. The job in compass many positions into one at a fixed pay rate. There was also safety hazard with exposure to human waste and chemicals without proper safety equipment. 

A typical day-to-day consisted of handling many different tasks such as, assisting salesmen, upper management and on the fly customers.
Personally, I learned how to expand my knowledge of different computer programs; Salesforce, Madden Co. Excel ect. 
The culture of the company was great, working with a strong team made all the difference.
What I found most challenging was prioritizing what was most important vs what could wait, but that is something that I worked on and felt that was getting better.
The most enjoyable part of my job was building relationships with customers, outside vendors, and my own team between our Mid-West Locations.

Fast pace, fun & exiting place to work! Fast growing company with unlimited options for individuals looking to be rewarded for their efforts. Conlan Tire doesn’t hesitate to reward those who work hard; promotions, increased pay, bonus’, etc.. I had zero experience in the tire industry before coming onboard and was pleasantly surprised how willing my managers were to help me grow, learn & succeed. If you are a hard worker and are tired of not being noticed, apply at Conlan you won’t be disappointed. 

Worked for this company for 2 years, sacrificed my time and effort. Grew myself up in the company, trained and passed on knowledge. Just to get terminated and loose everything because of management. If any hire up above your manager does not get a king with you, they will do anything to retaliate against you. They will use every excuse in the book possible to justify getting rid of you. You can be a great worker, always on time and every thing but if the hire ups don’t like you, you might as well put in your 2 weeks notice yourself. 

Pretty mind numbing work, management is poor. Turnover is ridiculous, 15 ish people were hired after me and quit before me in my short time there whether it was walking out at lunch or just not showing up. The work isn’t hard but they harp on production which can’t be done if they aren’t properly staffed. They can’t keep staff cause they don’t take care of the people they already have. At some point the BS catches up to the decent pay.

It use to be a good job but then they got a bad mananger who knows nothing about the job and the leads they have dont know anything eather they ask.for.to.much and when u cant give wat they ask.for they terminate u without even terminating u they dont have there stuff in order mananger and lead is wat makes it a bad work place they lie on u even when u dont do anything they have a long long long long long way to go if they even get there
