Pick n Pull Auto Dismantlers

A typical day of work consisted of lifting weights over 70-80 lbs, removing dust and debris from desks and merchandise or cars.
Management was not handled well, miscommunication occurred on many occasions according to attendance, time off requests, appointments, customer disputes, dress codes and rules. The story always changed based on who you talked to. The team itself worked well together but the head was not well trained, the manager was over qualified and the staff were not properly or efficiently trained as a result. 
The clientele ranged from everyday people to mechanics and restoration fanatics.
The culture was upheld greatly with consistent hot lunches, free refreshments, and many work events during the week. Personal awards were given based on reputation and ability in order to support morale. Most everyone supported each other like a family.

High sales mentality. Having to say no to someone who wouldnt pay full price for their items and catching thieving were the worst parts. It was always a possibility that we could be attacked for doing our jobs. Meeting new people was the best part of the job. 
WICKED BENEFITS PACKAGE! Highly recommended to work here.
Downside would be the bus schedule and need for personal transportation.

Lots of overtime. Competetive wages.

I open, count the till and the safe, sign customers in, look up what their looking for and provide the best accurate information im given. daily duties include; cleaning, hauling car parts to the return bins for further recycling, row audits, car buying, car aprt knowledge and testing, ive been trained in certain jobs in the production crew like bailing wire and radiators, de-wire cars dashes and harnessess. yard maintence such as cutting the trees along the fence line and cleaning the parking lot. lots of labour. i work with awesome staff and management as people. the hardest job would be the strain on my body from lifing and hauling hoods and transmissions. the establishment could treat the staff better as employees as far as appreciation and reviews go. my most enjoyable part is the knowledge i gain to benefit myself and most of the customers are great to serve and be around.

A typical day at work involved lots of heavy lifting and continuous cleaning to maintain the show room. Bringing in inventory twice daily, such as tires and batteries.
greet customers and help them find what they need from vehicles and what parts they are looking for through our company website.Answering the phones and making sure that i have answered all customer questions and concerns. Always maintain communication with my managers and co-workers. Always apart of a team and work together to meet store deadlines and sales goals.
The management team is there for any questions customers or staff has, and they also monitor the staff and customer satisfaction. The hardest part of the job at the beginning was the filing system and MS office suite and knowing the order of how to do simple day to day tasks, near the end it became easier. The most enjoyable part of the job was the physical tasks and keeping busy always.

Let me start by saying management is amazing. Can always have a good time with them, really down to earth individuals who always seem to try and make the environment a fun and productive place. Most of the employees are also pretty down to earth as well never had an issue with them. My typical day here involves ringing through auto parts and other sellable items, answering phones and assisting customers with their questions and look ups. I think the most difficult part about my job is dealing with coworkers who don't really know how to deal with customers. My most enjoyable part about working here is making connections with the customer base and just having a good time doing it. I've managed to learn so much from working here and have managed to work my way up the ladder. 

The job itself is not very hard as it's just repetitive and physically demanding. They provide you with a paid 30 minute break at 9 and an unpaid 30 minute break at 12 which is good. The only downside is the management. As soon as you bring up a safety concern and try to bring it to HR or anything corporate the store manager turns on you and makes it his mission to get you fired. The store manager hired me because I am white (his words not mine) and consistently complains about immigrants". He is extremely racist and very two-faced. For a corporation that prides itself on being one of the top ethical companies it is clearly kidding itself. I was fired for reporting an injury in the workplace and after returning from break was shown the door.

DO NOT WORK FOR THIS LOCATION IT IS AWFUL

typical day here consists of opening the store, assigning cash drawers, cleaning the sales area, organizing the tires, and buying cars, cashiering, selling cars and car parts
culture here is awesome- staff is great, clients are great and vendors are the best
hardest part of the job is dealing with rainy days- no customers and nobody wanting to have to clean the parking lot and tires rack
easiest part of the job is getting to basically hangout for hours with coworkers and clients in between cashiering. also the vendors bring in lunch for the crew sometimes
management isn't great- she doesn't really know how to run a facility like this. 
i learned almost everything there is to know about cars while working there

Save yourself the time and work elsewhere, the bosses here are terrible at their jobs. They never give you raises and you have to do so many things for the very low wage they pay. Every position is seriously underpaid for the amount of work they have to do. 

You will not advance and you will not get raises, expect to have your clothes ruined and to go home dirty everyday. 

Prepare to be over worked and to be doing unnecessary tasks all day long. Each position basically has you do labour type of work for barely above minimum wage. 

This whole company is laughable. Please follow my advice and work elsewhere. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
There is no best part of working for this company.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Lack of real management when you need help or guidance, customers treat you badly, low pay for what you deal with daily, don't expect to ever advance, lots of corporate oversight while improving nothing, basically don't bother with this company.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Typical corporation you are just a number and easily replaced 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Nothing but stress and aggression from customers

Overall working there for 5 years has had its ups and downs but lately management has given up on ensuring the state of a fully operational facility that isnt constantly backlogged of weeks of work. Also side note, management is extremely sexist so, if you are a male be expected to do the majority of daily tasks! If you are a female whom enjoys hard labour be expecting to be looked over and have work youd like to do passed up on to a male co worker  multiple times.

Management was very poorly organized. The staff were not trained well. The work load was unrealistic and poorly planned. The managers had to live there in order to try to keep up to the work load. There was no job security and it was always a threat of loosing your job due to quotas that were not realistic. The safety culture was nonexistent and safety concerns were pushed aside for production needs. Would not recommend working here.
