South Trail Kia

South Trail Kia had a lot of issues that made working there difficult. They favoured the employees who shared the same culture and beliefs. There was no assistance as a new hire and it felt as if they threw you into a pack of wolves with no warning. Management was very unwilling to help, and often, they left me out of discussions and made me feel not valued or respected. They would automatically pass off customers of a certain ethnicity to one specific sales person, whom of course had the highest sales in the company for this reason. They did not operate on a whoever greets the customer first gets to work on the sale. They had very unfair work policies and then blame you for not making sales when they do everything in their power to take sales away from you. I’d highly recommend finding elsewhere to work. 

Management does not care about you, if something happens in your family and it affects your work they do not care. They will say they do and say something like "what can we do to help you" then when you least expect it they let you go. 
They try to pretend like they are a family dealership but that couldn't be farther from the truth. 
The only thing this dealership likes are the sales. If you fall behind you are done, yes we all know that comes with any dealership but this one is the worst by far. 
Most of the people working there are good people but most of the management could careless about their sales people.

Not the greatest place to work but its not the worst. Hard to make money there. Service Manager tries really hard, sticks by his good techs and is very understanding. One of the best bosses Ive ever had. All staff get along, not much drama or politics. If you look past the low pay and lack of hours, its a big family. Best shop Ive worked for to date!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great team. Opportunity for career advancement 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not enough inventory to sell.  

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
People who work at the company are helpful.

Staff is good to work with overall. Some don't like to answer their phones but that won't change. Management pressures techs to do more work than they can at times and work life balance or job security isn't a thing here or getting raises even after promised. 

They don’t care about employees, they don’t care about your skills, they have nothing to do with job security. They will stab you in the back and use you to the best of their abilities before kicking you to the curb.  

This Dealership is the best Kia in Western Canada and i think anyone looking for a new ride should go here. Working here is so much fun.  The team here I love so much and we all do the best we can to make every customer leave here happy

I would recommend everyone to come work for South Trail Kia, this is a second home for many. Lots of advancement opportunities, great co-workers and lots of fun team building events. 

New dealership that needs to get busier before they hire more people

Start work at 8am to 4:00 Monday to Friday, book appointments, confirm bookings, submit warranty.

Fun environment to work. General manager is good to work with. A typical day at work I do numbers, social media posting and any videos I need to do. Good place to work.
