Woodhouse Auto Family

What is the best part of working at the company?
It’s a family owned company that embraces the employees and sets them up to succeed…at their roles within the company and in their personal lives They promote from within and recognize and reward those who go “above and beyond”.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
It’s the stress you place on yourself. It’s like a child wanting to please a parent…you just do not want to be mediocre…it’s an environment where you want to be exceptional!

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It’s a family! Good days always outweigh the bad days and once you’ve been embraced by the company…no one nor any other place seems right.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Fun, rewarding, challenging, new and again…always fun!

Don’t expect to ever have doctor’s appointments, or you’ll be written up (even with literal doctors notes and being approved for time off). Good luck asking for help. They’ll just tell you to look at the 15 page binder and figure it out. The most passive aggressive boss I’ve ever met. No one should talk to their NEW employees (who just want a little guidance) the way they do. And if you’re not getting a passive aggressive answer, you’re not getting one at all. And they gossip about people like they’re in high school. They don’t know how to communicate unless it’s through yet another passive aggressive email with no clear message. The money is fine, but not worth the immaturity.

I can say enough positive things about my place of business. I absolutely love working for Woodhouse Chevy in Missouri Valley. We are one big family. We care for each other and are there to help each other. We have fun at work while getting the job done. We drive one another to become the best versions of ourselves and it shows every day. If anyone needs something whether it be at work or in our personal lives we come together to help and share and be there if someone is in need. I truly love where I am in my career and cant think of any place I would rather be. I wish I would have found this place sooner. 

Woodhouse is a great company to work for because I feel my ideas/opinions are heard and there is true teamwork towards a common goal. Everyone helps each other to grow personally and professionally which is something I have not found anywhere else. I have been with the company for 5.5 years and it feels like 1 or 2 because actually enjoy coming to work. This company genuinely appreciates its' employees and we feel the love. My wife is a nurse for a large privately owned hospital and doesn't receive 1/10th of the perks every employee for Woodhouse receives.

Some managerment was great above that level begins the phonyness. You had to fight for pay raises. They keep low as possible until you threaten to quit. Promotions near impossible if youre a tech. Back pack program got out of hand started off being able to donate anonymous. Next year a form to fill out wjth criteria of donations they wanted you to fill out and put youre name on. Year after that a form with youre name already on it with the donation criteria. Felt like you  would be judged per youre donations or pressured when you are personally struggling yourself.

Depending on what store you’re put at, you will either have a great or terrible time. Taking care of sales is NOT for the weak. These guys need their hands held and butts wiped 24/7. Woodhouse is a great company to work for, just be aware of your peers and prepared to potentially not be appreciated by the people you are helping. This position is great for a yes man and someone who is okay with not being busy every second. If you’re looking for an easy job, apply. If you’re looking for “more” and want to feel important, keep scrolling. Again, this all depends on what store you’re at. Ultimately, the job itself is fine, some people are not.

Woodhouse is a great company to work for.  There is passion for what we do and the managers and owners care about their employees.  HR, Marketing, the owners do various events throughout the year for the employees such as employee appreciation, food trucks, Husker tickets, raffles, etc.  Their is potential for growth, development, and promotions within if you work hard enough and want it.  We're closed on Sundays and hours are shorter on Saturdays so we get to enjoy some of the weekend.  

This company does not care about their employees at all. All you are is a number to them and that’s it. Getting a raise here is like pulling teeth. No matter how hard you work, they will still find something negative about you. Favoritism is a BIG thing at Woodhouse. One employee will get fed endlessly with work while the others starve and do not make a paycheck. It’s either Feast or Famine. DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY. There are much better companies out there that will cherish you as a valuable employee.

Started in September of 2014 as a service technician. I am currently the service manager while also still working in the shop. Woodhouse has given me a great opportunity to grow not only as a technician but as a manager. The care that Woodhouse provides for its employees is unlike any other company I have worked for. From being able to leave for family/sporting/life events to the understanding there is life outside of work. I feel they care for their employees at a top-notch level. That care has allowed me to feel proud to say I work for Woodhouse!!

I have been with Woodhouse since August 2024 and I can confidently say that it has been a rewarding experience. The atmosphere here encourages growth, positivity and family. 

Management is approachable and genuinely cares about employee well-being, which makes a significant difference in my day-to-day work life. They encourage open communication, making it easy to share ideas and feedback. 
Overall, I am grateful to be part of such a fantastic team and look forward to continuing my journey here.
