Vantaggi
- Team engagement on Wednesdays occasionally provides food per management approval. - Free coffee when other teammates are sick as a morale boost. I tend to be a pretty positive person but working here was truly awful. It started off great, my coworkers were wonderful people and worked fantastically as a team, free snacks occasionally on Wednesday's. The Gm truly /seemed/ to care about everyone. After working here for a few months, you realize they do not care about you are anyone else. See Cons:
Svantaggi
- They overwork and underpay all of their staff. Unless you come in with a job offer in-hand, you are offered NO reviews or raises while you work here. The salary rates offered in the Oregon region are FAR BELOW market value. - Beaverton GM, Brian, has smacked myself and other teammates across the face. HR did nothing as most of the upper management in Oregon region consists of family friends, children, or spouses of the of the regional manager and his family. - After helping young women and girls, GM often comes back into office and says "Oh, she wants me!" among other sexist comments. Has made comments that some of the female staff would make great prostitutes. - GM and RM speak gibberish to bilingual employees as they converse in languages other than English. - RM often asks new POC employees 'where are they really from?' - Mistakes from past teammates added onto the work plate of new employees and micromanaged until completed without proper training or channels for information. Such as missing checks, bad repairs, missed deductibles. They will have other employees "review and follow up" but they do not actually ensure they are doing so. When they leave or are transferred, this becomes the new employee's responsibility. See below why this is bad. - Incomplete training. More often than not, new employees' training is given to a teammate with no experience with training. Many vital components of the job are missed and new employees will be transferred to another location if not performing well outright. - Company did not provide reasonable accommodations for disabilities for coworkers while I worked there. Oftentimes, these teammates quit due to pain or unaccommodated needs. - At least three lawsuits while I worked here. One involving a serious safety incident after an employee was asked to do work without the proper tools. They are now permanently disabled. Another involved a missed portion of quality control due to upper management's demand that cars be sent home at the end of the month to make the center seem more profitable. - Outdated equipment makes it hard to complete daily tasks - Unrealistic workloads for ALL employees. Really there is so much more to be said. It was disappointing as those I work with outside of management tend to be kindhearted, honest, funny individuals all overworked until they burn out. Do not work for the Oregon Caliber Collision centers.
