Pluspunten

Good pay many talented people , big budgets, great headquarters, good benefits decent training opportunities. Low chance of layoffs

Minpunten

The caf team's egos are so big they can no longer see how bad some of their solutions are. The need for 24/7 support arises from poor design and implementation. They don't bother to do basic design good practices like normalization. The developer who is on call fixes crappy code by manually running jobs or running untested code right in production without even backing data up. It's also a lot like swimming with sharks. They have created a culture of the in group and the out group. My manager actually talked to me about my co-workers weaknesses in a way I found extremely unprofessional. Stay away from the finance group but I think some of the other teams are better. Carmax is kinda sad they were cutting edge but they are falling behind and every competitor is now doing the things that used to give carmax competitive advantage. They have grown into large corporation that's slow to act.

Pluspunten

Remote work, first 2 weeks of the 2 month training, offers sick time before PTO rolls in

Minpunten

Little to no worklife balance, toxic positivity (like when they called the meeting about taking away our bonuses “exciting news” and tried to gaslight us as to why this was a good thing), extreme micromanagement, listening to our headsets constantly without us knowing, AI rating our metrics, unrealistic expectations, you basically do 4 jobs in one (at Carvana, appraisals / selling, financial applications and documents / EPUs, sales and customer service were ALL DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS.
