Flynns Tire Group

Loved driving truck and delivering tires.  The store personal was great and would help out a lot.  Made so many friends.  Warehouse Manager always thought the worst of me and would put me down.  Hated driving trashy trucks.  Drivers would throw trash on the floors of the trucks and never clean it up.  Trucks had close to 400,000 miles on them.  Always had things wrong with them like back doors you could not get open that hurt my back.  Seemed like I was the only driver that cared about truck maintenance as I would stop and get them fixed at leasing company so I would not get fined by DOT and Warehouse Manager would get mad at me.  Warehouse Manager would approve me days off and would then call me and ask me why I was not at work.  Did not like me calling off work even when I gave them plenty of notice.  I would come into work and Warehouse Manager would tell me that I was scheduled off and to go home when I had not scheduled to be off.  Warehouse Manager would tell me to do something that I was told not to do by another Warehouse Manager and embarrass me.  Warehouse Manager would never remember things that I had told him or ask for.

I worked here for a few months in 2021 and quit due to personal reasons but this was an amazing job and one of the best tire shops in the area by far. The management was fair, very skilled and knowledgeable about the tire business and willing to teach you. I think if you wanted to get into this type of work this would be a great place to start. We got bonus money the more work we did and the owner made sure to give more the more money they made. Management would get us pizza/breakfast on Saturday's. It's fast and hard physical work, you will be tired.

My only issue was some of the other coworkers really didn't pull their own weight and two in particular were really upset to see anyone advance which cost me a learning experience and more money, not really making it worth it for me to stay. If you can go in and not get taken advantage of by the lazy ones in there and go through those hoops you will be rewarded in this company to do so!

Hours were typically 8-10 hours 5 days a week with a day off during the week but working Saturday and 30min unpaid lunches. The health and benefits were the best I've ever seen. I highly recommend Flynn's 



Management has no clue how to run a business let alone a shop. There’s no professional standard in the shop. Hard work doesn’t pay off and there’s no room for growth unless they want to get free mechanic work from you, then they put you in Flynn classes that amounts to nothing. They don’t pay their experienced over worked techs, so when they bring in the “no experience needed” people in for a dollar less, they get subliminally hazed until they quit. Osha had to be called from injuries due to their sketchy building and no training habits. And when important training finally comes into play, you’re urged to rush through the videos and given answer sheets to safety questions. Not to mention the uncertified lifts rusting apart from china you trust your body and life with. Very bad place to work, there are 5 really good tire shops in the area way more worth your time. Or just Walmart if you wanna feel like a joke like working at Flynn’s. 

General labor good pay for what it is. The management needs work. was never trained or prioritized in any other part of the job like my coworkers who started around the same time I did. hardest part of the job is being cautious and paying very close attention to detail on what you are doing. the most enjoyable was it being a 3rd shift. I did not enjoy my time there as much as I thought i would. three people (including me) hired within the week all were trained and ready within the first 3 weeks as for me they left to do the stuff they didn’t want to. I personally wasn’t trained and was told week after week i would be. A simple mistake by a coworker would be brushed off, as for me it would cause my manager to hover/micromanage over my work for several days following. in general the job itself is good if you are trained and respected. The pay is good. And it makes for a good career path. 

I'm a very hard worker. I actually love hard work still my experience at Flynn's Tires was a very bad one. I hurt my hand outside of work and still came in injured and loaded and unloaded 50ft trailers with up to 1500 tires of various sizes, brands, and styles. Two to three trucks a day is what were the requirements were. I, along with two other team members one of which whom worked when he felt like it, unloaded at the very least 2 trucks a day "WITH AN INJURED HAND" I worked a week with one hand. I was treated as if I wasn't doing any work at all. Management does not care about employees in any way shape nor form. They also lack a productive system of tasking. It's a mess there.

When I first started I was very excited for the future opportunities but quickly learned that the all upper management including corporate level (store level is the worst they dont pass along imporant information until too late)is terrible offers no help won't even take customer complaints only helps when absolutely necessary when management does come around its only to complain and then you hear about it from multiple people 
In my time here I did not receive one raise or even a review if you do ask for a raise they will laugh management is too busy doing nothing the nepotism is very visible as well 

I worked at Flynn's for 8 months.  The pay is average,but the amount of labor you do is not worth the pay, advancement in the company is rare .it is a very stressful place to work in. Don't expect to be paid correctly the hours you work are 40/week. But some where down the line some one is changing your hours and you are being ripped off . the sales expect cars to be Done in 20 minutes, a 4 tire change over,oil change plus brake pads in 20 minutes? They rush you and when something breaks they scream at you.I've had tools stolen from me multiple times. I suggest another garage to work in. Flynn's is not a happy place,neither are the people.

The Flynn's really care about their employees and customers alike! They go out of their way to make you know that you are appreciated and a valuable member of their team! I have read the other reviews and it seems that the issues are with the managers not the owners in particular. As with any company there are good apples and bad apples! I have seen many employees come and go, but sometimes it takes that to get the winning team. In the shop I work at a lot of us have been there many years 14, 10, 8, 4, are a few examples. I honestly have not one bad thing to say about the owners they are great people!

Raise vehicles, using hydraulic jacks. Remount wheels onto vehicles. Unbolt and remove wheels from vehicles, using lug wrenches or other hand or power tools. Place wheels on balancing machines to determine counterweights required to balance wheels. Identify tire size and ply and inflate tires accordingly. Replace valve stems and remove puncturing objects. Hammer required counterweights onto rims of wheels. Reassemble tires onto wheels. Seal punctures in tubeless tires by inserting adhesive material and expanding rubber plugs into punctures, using hand tools. Inspect tire casings for defects, such as holes or tears.

I have worked for Flynn's for many years and have been fortunate to be able grow with the company. The upper management of the company treat each employee with respect and you could say they make you feel as part of the family.  I have met many great people through working at Flynn's that have left a lasting impression. Working for a small family owned and operated company does require a lot of long hours and hard work to succeed but, this company has always given me the freedom to create my own career path.
