Let me think....I’ll get back to you on that one! It’s not very many pros! The organizational culture is so toxic that it has eroded anything positive!

Minpunten

This is a warning to any serious sales professional thinking about joining this company, please don’t! During this review I will use the words “allegedly” and “suspected” to save myself from any legal ramifications. This company is allegedly rigged up for the most senior advisors to sale the most vehicles. It has been suspected that sales managers have played favoritism with certain advisors by giving them the best leads. DriveTime entire sales process is nostalgic compared to its competitors. This company make its advisors work the whole deal from start to finish. It is a major distraction to worry about things that’s unrelated to selling vehicles. Also, since this company does not have a competitive advantage, they make the associates call a minimum of 50 customers a day. The sales managers are mere hall monitors that’s over paid! In lieu of developing DriveTime’s sales advisors, they send useless emails all day pressuring them to hit metrics. The sales advisors as well as managers have allegedly been robbing the owner of this company blind for years. Multiple advisors and managers are currently under investigation for fudging numbers and assisting customers with submitting fraudulent documents. This company will remain stagnant and will not grow as long as it have the “bad apples” there. To any potential true sales professional thinking about taking a job with this company, you have been warned!

Pluspunten

It use to operate like a startup. Flexible with the right management. Outings can be fun, but most of the fun has been laid off or budgeted out. Red tape, metrics, favoritism, and budgeting ruined everything. I miss what it use to be.

Minpunten

They have let go at least 50% of IT, and another 20% have left on their own if not more within the last year. The good old boy club is very strong, was told there's no where to move up. Years in a row never having any actual achievable goals to show accountability for promotion. They are running out of technical knowledge and the only one's who are staying are those who've been there for a long time, only. Even some of those are getting laid off unexpectedly. Having connections outside of work seems to matter more than skill or contributions wether that's code or hours spent. Be wary of applying here, they are running on a skeletion crew on just about every team, this was not the case a year ago. What's left is not the biggest contributors or most impactful team members. Once the CTO (Greg) left, it all started a shift, a little over a year ago. No sense of ownership on any of the teams, while every team is so fragmented. One could be implimenting something affecting the whole company and get laid the same day.
