Be prepared to work for a supervisor who doesn’t care about the actual process of training. A normal day is receiving a task and doing it, while watching the department head stand at his toolbox for 2 hours a day. The reason I include this detail is that he will always be the first to criticize other people on their character, work ethic, anything you can name, while consistently ignoring and unwilling to live up to his own flaws like an adult. It does not matter how hard you try; it doesn’t matter how hard you try to live up to the expectation, because he will always talk trash, and that’s because he doesn’t know anything else. The saying respect is earned, not given doesn’t apply to the department head; it's more like, " Snap my fingers and demand your cooperation while I badmouth you behind your back”. Seriously, you can’t make this up. I lived it; I’ve heard plenty of employees talk about it. Save yourself the hassle and ignore people who really don't deserve your time and effort. Don’t put yourself through the painstaking task of dealing with somebody who doesn’t understand basic social practices and boundaries; it's like dealing with a child. Again, you can’t make this up. Avoid detail at all costs; it’s not worth dealing with the social cancer in the form of a grown man, but if you go to a different department like service, you will also deal with a social cancer in the form of a service manager. BUT WAIT THERES MORE! Just kidding, I could go on all day; just stay away.

Started with company almost 7 years ago, was promised yearly reviews with a minimum of $1 increase per year.  In the 7 years I only had 1 review and the only increases I received were when I was offered another position and was going to leave.  Every time I got an increase, mgmt automatically gave co-worker a bump to make sure they were paid more than I was.  Overtime is mandatory, 9 hours per day during the week and mandatory Saturdays.  Time off is unpaid, no holiday pay, only 10 days of vacation per year no matter how long you've been with the company.  You have to fight for every increase.  Management has favorites, some that storm off and quit and then they are back with a raise, others give 2 weeks notice and the company treats them like traitors.  Time and attendance means nothing, employees who show up every day on time and work are treated worse than those who come in late every single day and call in sick at least once per pay period.  Company took on a new location which increased workload and employees weren't compensated for additional work.

If you like working some place like American Chopper the TV show, where the owners/family fight all the time and enjoy a Service Manager that creates unnecessary conflicts with customers than this is the place for you. I was mainly left to do my work with little interference. At the time I worked there most of the staff was helpful and nice. I never asked for a raise, but veteran employees that had been there for years could not get raises. I would never again trust the service manager after my time working at this dealership. The owners on the whole try and show some staff appreciation but the bad things out ways the good. I am glad to be somewhere else now.

This company thrives on favoritism. It doesn’t matter how hard or well you work if they like another employee  more. Hours are outrageous, pay is inadequate for the amount of work that is demanded. Employees are not treated kindly.  No time for personal life. Over worked and underpaid. Management is a nightmare. It’s a job that’ll teach you a few important skills for other jobs later on but that’s probably the only good thing about it.  

Owners and so called management do not care about the employees. if you give all it’s never enough. owners and management ignore all the sources of problems and issues and blame employees for not being efficient. The whole place is unorganized and all the equipment is wore out never maintained and employees are blamed for abuse do yourself  a favor and work somewhere else .

It will pay the bills and some of people there are very helpful and honest. Management is a complete nightmare and there is no structure. They go through people faster then McDonald's and pay them about the same as fast food.

Boat customers can be hard to deal with

Busy In summers can be slow in winter

No structure fly by the seat of your pants have to watch your back rules change to fit what ever the day brings lack of communication most of the time your on your own no sharing of information 

The employees are great. The hours and pay are not fair. You will get paid less than you deserve. You have to “work” for your pay but it’s never enough there.Work life balance is not an option, the hours are ridiculous.

if you are a serious salesperson stay FAR away from this cult....sales manager is a fat, sarcastic loser that needs to hone his people skills...steer clear
