McCarthy Tire Service Company

Working for McCarthy is challenging in many ways as they expect you to walk in the door with prior knowledge of how the system works.
Very little training for a company that says it prides itself on safety.
Luckily I learn pretty quickly so I adapted well in a short period of time.
The culture there is to be desired as there are many folks that are prior convicts.
Most are ok but there are some that enjoy telling you about the prison time they did, seems they are proud of it.
Let’s talk about the equipment, this company will let their equipment fall apart before spending any amount of money to repair or even make it safe for the operator to use.
Seems unproductive not fixing the problems. Though they want as much money as possible if not a little more than feasible with the working conditions.
The turn over in the retread shop is insane. They go threw people all the time.
It’s so bad that they will pay you a bonus just to show up to work.
In the service side it’s much different, there is no show up bonus but the service guys do get a bonus if they do 10k a month in calls.
The guys that never go on the road never see a bonus. 
I would say that if you have a difficult time finding a job because of a past that may be frowned upon by other employers, you may find a home here as that doesn’t apply here. Pass a drug test and your good to go. But you will work for the money you earn. It’s hot place to work but the pay is decent.
All in all it’s a place that you can make a living but advancement is short in coming.
Unless your at management level you will never see more than what you did when you first started there.
If you can find another place to work then I would suggest you entertain that.

On a normal morning, there are service orders waiting for the OTR Technician. Check tools, check your equipment, load your tires and head out towards your first job.  Once you complete the job, check-in with the store before heading to the next job.  Sometimes you may need to head back to the shop for a priority or an emergency service call. You work in different areas.  You can be assigned Fleet Surveys, perform tire service, replacements, repairs and complete the paperwork. The company is decent company to work for and had two great bosses and worked with a lot of great people. The days are usually always busy and there is always something new to learn when it come to tires and the things that the roads and fields do to them and how to repair or replace them when needed.

Anyone looking for a job, I highly suggest staying away. 

 Store management was absolutely a joke, when hired he seemed like a nice guy, that was until I found out that he was very forgetful, even though he kept notes. He was brought in from another store and made manager, and ended up loosing his first set of employee's, Of course he blamed them, but I see why they all quit and walked out on him.

  His lunch time consisted of his Bar time, he would come back happy, blood shot eyes, chewing his gum. The hours weren't bad at this one store, M-F 8am-5am, No Saturdays, But I guarantee that this will change.

There was no drive in service, This Tire business really didn't sell many passenger tires, their business consists of a Tire Capping plant, they recap larger tires and resell them. I highly wouldn't suggest anyone work at this place, anyway, not for this Store Manager.

A typical work day is following the same routine with a consistent flow and helping coworkers when needed as well getting my work completed for the days assignment. I believe I learn to work better with my coworkers and stay away from negative mis understanding of their instructions and direct them to their supervisr. I learn to manage my time at work very well and in a specific order sequence, The work place culture is a work place of professional technitions who help assist each other when ever needed. As far as I am concern, the hardest part of the job is to plan ahead and be on time to start the shift everyday Why? because during the day we have many other responcibilites to carry out I put things in order for me to follow. The most enjoyable part of the job is producing results and leaving safe at the end of the day happy.

I wouldn’t give my worst enemy a job application to this place. Pay rate good if you just got out of high school, not for a sustainable living wage. PTO is completely disturbing. There’s about 8 call offs every single day so they’re always short staffed and making every decent employee over work themselves to barely make rate. Hands down one of the biggest free for all’s I’ve ever witnessed. Management has no clue what they’re even doing which is why they have new management every month. HR is a total joke. You could be there for 6 years and only get a $2/hr pay raise even though you break your spine day in and day out for the company. No room to grow whatsoever due to the blatant favoritism within management and HR. The only positive thing about the place is the time clock when your shift is over.

Management is horrible. They will not turn down any customer and will tell them to bring their vehicle down when there is 30 in front of it. Constantly rush you to get everything you work on done. If you go  1 minute over your lunch break its the end of the world. They will sometimes make you work 6 days for 40 hours, which means they will send you home 2 hours after you arrive on the last day of the pay period. Not allowed to stock parts but instead they expect you to be able to fix everything and make your own parts it seems. Mad at you if you need to order something next day. Upper management has nothing better to do but abusing their power when they are bored. They made us change where we park mid shift at least 3 times in 2 years. Lots of 2 faced people working there also. Would not recommend.

Nothing in life is free and if you work a honest day at this company you will be paid a fair wage.
It’s not for some but is very flexible if you have had issues with other employers.
If you want to work you will find a job here. You will make a good living and make a few friends on the way. Some will say bad things about this company and no employer is perfect, they are there to make money just like you. The environment is not an office desk job. If you want that go to college and spend 100k and then you might find one as you pay your student loan off for the rest of your life.
If you have basic hand skills and a level head you will be fine here.

A complete waste of time. This is a good starter job for someone but nothing more than that. It’s a dead end job with no chance of getting anywhere within the company. The manager has no clue what he’s doing and barely comes out the office for anything other than to smoke or leave for the day. He has no respect whatsoever from any of the workers within the place. Most of the people there were cool, met some really good people there. But management literally destroys the place. Don’t expect a raise, don’t expect much of anything at all. Place is falling apart and machines break down daily. The place is a literal joke. Feel bad for the guys stuck there. 

Typical day consists of servicing customers, up selling product and services, detailing customer vehicles and conducting regular maintenance of car wash equipment. I learned a lot about building good customer relations and keeping the customer satisfied with their experience with McCarthy tire. Management was strict when need be but also understanding when personal situations arose making it a comfortable working environment. The hardest part about the job was there was no set breaks since there was usually some down time through out the shift that's when you were expected to take a break or lunch.

I wouldn't recommend working for this company at all. They lie, and treat you like garbage. They are terrible at hiring people with a brain so you will be stuck doing the work of about 3-4 people and after a year or 2 of doing it you'll threaten to leave since they never give raises. Then they will lie and say " we will take care of you it's a family company" but they say it to keep you locked in and you never end up getting promotions or raises. Worst company I ever worked for,  and yes I was a hard worker but eventually you lose all motivation and drive to work for a terrible company like this so I recommend staying away
