Gettel Automotive Group

What is the best part of working at the company?
The strongest quality of the company by far the pay rate, which I found competitive while working as a Car Porter and Service Receptionist (BDC). If you’re looking for a healthy workplace with management support, balanced work load, fair expectations, this workplace is not for you, RUN AWAY AND DON’T LOOK BACK.  

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Working for Gettel Hyundai of Lakewood was exceptional at first, however the rapid decline in management quality, coupled with an extremely high turnover rate, led to a chaotic work environment where you’ll be asked to push yourself past the limit. As a Receptionist, you’ll be asked to run around the dealership demanding constant updates on vehicles that are in for service in order to “update” customers on their vehicle status, however this IS NOT IN THE JOB DESCRIPTION, this is the role of a Service Advisor. This is a small example of the extracurricular tasks you’ll be put through. 

When assisting customers, you are influenced rapidly resolve the customer’s demands without the necessary support from other staff members and management. YOU WILL DROWN IN UNNECESSARY EXPECTATIONS. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
There is NO INVESTMENT IN A HEALTHY CULTURE/WORK ENVIRONMENT. I’ve spoken to many employees from ALL Departments, I asked one simple question, “are you proud to work here for Gettel”, they all answered “NO”. This only highlights the lack of wit environment at Gettel. 

The work environment is unfortunately nonexistent, due to the fact that there is not a single employee on the service department staff who’s worked over 6 months. This is due to LOW PAY for service advisors along with poor management. 

I have had multiple time where CUSTOMERS WILL APOLOGIZE TO ME! For how unorganized the service department was and how they felt “SORRY” for the lack of support I receive. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Your everyday work at Gettel will either consist of management pressing you will unreasonable demands OR customer dissatisfaction and disappointment that you will constantly have to address due to Gettel’s unprofessionalism and lack of leadership. 

YOU WILL BE STRESSED. Beware of constant pressure to preform for the company and be prepared to have quick-responses for each task preformed.

11 hour shifts that are enforced to be standing with a one hour break. Coworkers think that they are your boss because the management is very "laid back". There is no opertunity for growth. The work environment is TOXIC. So many stressed out people who lash out in anger because no one there can deal with their emotions in a healthy manner. People will take advantage of you with no reward. NO ONE WANTS TO DO THEIR JOB, AND IT IS EXPECTED OF YOU TO DO EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING YOU CAN THAT IS NOT IN YOUR JOB DESCRIPTION. The sense of accomplishment or success if void. You will never hear the words, "good job," unless it is used in a snarky, sarcastic manner. Do not get me started on favoritism in the workplace. You will work most holidays. Do not bother putting in your two weeks notice because they will tell you to just not come back. A mandatory uniform is required to be worn, and you must pay $7.00 every week to use the cleaning service, EVEN IF YOU NEVER USE IT (which is $336.00 a year for a service that you never use.)

It was a very high pressure job that led to a lot of burnout.
I was well compensated but what's the point of having money when you have no time to spend with your family?  
The most important thing I learned at this job was money isn't everything, there is so much more to life.
Distinguished for restructuring sales bonus incentives for staff and exceeding sales goals each month set by ownership.
Responsible for day to day operations for 15+ person sales staff.
Training, scheduling, and formulating sales objectives.
Managed $15,000,000 floor plan, inventory, new vehicle ordering and dealer trades.
Secured funding for new and pre-owned vehicle purchases.

You get know training, just learn the cars.
The managers suck and will mess up deals unless you are their golden children. (Selected few)
you work all day, no time for self or family
Management B/S's when you ask questions or get upset with you. Took days to get an answer that payment was commission only! 
you sell cars, you still lose.
Bad business, sometimes great employees
This is just my opinion and the experience I went thorough. 
I will never work for or purchase from Gettel Nissan.
Gettel does not care about you. 

You can work your a** off for these people and they could care less. There’s no convincing them that they’re wrong once their mind is set on negatively charged idea.

Management always has an attitude, no matter the reason. They’ll blame you for every mistake that’s made, whether it’s your fault or theirs. Don’t even get me started on the way they talk about customers behind their back. I’d be in the office getting keys and the things they would say are disgusting.

I’d never recommend working for such a toxic company in my life. 

A typical day is very fast paced. Always on my toes at all times of the day. You never know what the next person is going to inform you with the next task at hand. I learned that the heat is most definitely my motivation. Pushes you to work faster and harder to get the job completed but also to do it perfectly the first time so it doesn't need to be done again. Management is by far the best I have dealt with in a very long time! Very understanding individuals and someone to look up to. They go above and beyond every single day.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Supportive management, was decent pay but they did change the pay plan after I left. Great coworkers. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Sometimes we were overwhelmed with to many appointments. This is a very busy service department so there is opportunity. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Clean and comfortable. Friendly staff. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
For me 6.30am to about 5.00pm.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Ther is nothing good for working at Gettle or anything affiliated with Gettle. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Just working ther within itself is a stressful part. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Hostile and unless you are in a certain click you are going no where

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Stressful and unfullfilling with nothing to look forward to.

12 hr+ work days, Battery service testing/ warranty, replace. Tire change-spare and or air, Fuel delivery, lock out service. For AAA and other contracts, open retail public. Company Vehicles were well warn...Management Average, Hardest part lifting batteries into customer vehicle for remove/install, Floor jack very Heavy duty. The customers usually very nice,,but seldom tipped.

This position started as a fresh and exciting chapter but is ending as a stressful and depressing place.  The huge turnover in both base employees and management with no true support from current manager except demands for more time and more effort (we already average 58 hours a week) leaves a sadly bitter taste in my mouth.  They will pit you against each other with no real desire for a team.  Run as far as you can.
