Upper management has no idea what they are doing. They are losing good employees and customers! Squeezing every ounce out of employees and middle management to meet targets with no support or investment into staff. How to achieve targets is on you. No social programs, no recognition of department achievements or personal achievements.  No birthday shout outs nothing! No one cares there!  
It is for certain one day Phaeton will get bought out by another company. With the majority of problems coming from the top 2 levels of management the group is doomed to erode from within.

Great as a apprentice learning experience if you know how to turn a wrench. If you're an oil changer that can't learn, you'll most likely stay at oil changing but that can be said about alot of places. As a technician, the pay is very low at this point in our industry. You don't get paid for training for online courses, you don't get a raise for getting your Hybrid/ HVT. You'll sell a large ticket once a blue moon, the mindset there is in and out services. Everything gets warrantied even if it's supposed to be CP.  Work volume was very low during low season, like EXTREMLY low. 

Service manager was by far one of the best I’ve ever worked with, he will always give you the benefit of the doubt. A lot of politics between employees which creates an unhealthy work environment, and a lot of dead weight employees who should have been terminated for lack of performance a long time ago. Opening up a night shift which is pointless as there is no guarantees hours 

The job was fine, however management was not. They had no idea how to run a dealership and make it as productive as possible. The only thing they have going for them is that their GM is a well known talk show host and popular social media figure. Long hours for little pay and a team that was very unorganized.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The old staff that are all now gone 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not enough staff to perform duties 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Toxic worked from 50-60 hours per week always excelled but was never respected for my work or knowledge 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Min 10 hour days non stop since under staffed

Waste of time the management has no clue what they are doing it all seems nice until you get to work and deal with higher ups . They don’t care about employees at all. They replace employee once they don’t need you anymore basically you might have a job today and tomorrow you will be out of job without any notice. Worse dealer group I have ever worked for

It is a very pressure job , we all have a coder to meet every month , i have been in the business for 30 years and the reward from most of the dealerships are 
 cutting down. Give u an example , in 1987 , minimum commission is $ 100 but now 2017 still  $100 , what 's a joke!!!

I've worked at Richmond Hill Toyota for over 10 years and have had a positive experience throughout my time here. The team is supportive, the work is rewarding, and I've been given opportunities to grow professionally. Like any dealership, there are busy periods, but the people and culture have made it a place I've been happy to stay with for the long term.
