Good discount on car parts, and it's a decent place for a first job. The commission on top of your hourly wage is also a nice perk
Cons
Starting pay isn’t great for the physically demanding work you sometimes do. They also sometimes hire managers without any prior car knowledge, and you may encounter some rude or even racist customers

Great company. Great management. Flexible schedule. Competitive pay. Great advancement opportunities as long as you work it. Friendly customers and great coworkers.
Cons
Interviews and getting hired on usually take a while because it goes through so many people up the line. Most companies the store manager can hire and/or fire someone but this company it all goes through several people
The catalog system is easy to use and technology wise they are pretty up to date, very simple and convenient
Cons
The hours suck, the pay sucks. The company only cares about profit it’s no different from autozone, they are able to sell parts for less compared to Napa because they pay the employees barely above minimum, they don’t like giving raises no matter how hard your work you have to basically be a store manager or higher to get a good pay. They open more stores to make more profit and keep employees at the bare minimum. It sucks working there I think if your ISS, which is wholesale, you can make decent money with that because they give a bigger bonus from the amount of sales you make plus less responsibility and better hours but thats if a position opens up and you’ll probably be there 4 plus years until you can get that position unless you’re lucky and one opens up in the area.
