Pros

Decent pay, stay work, transparent, good benefits and stock plan. Fun, fast paced environment with right managers in place. Get to touch lots of vehicles most would normally never have the chance. Auction is something to experience along with learning the insurance side.

Cons

Forced overtime unscheduled(5:01pm load outs), difficult to move beyond loader or title/dispatcher, understaffed yards. Cannot purchase any auction vehicles, no post time work with anyone affiliated with copart. Limited in options to help customers, extreme safety rules(understandable but think there should be more emphasis of ability and not keeping the obvious unsafe operators on equipment before and after certain accidents) on loading and helping a customer load a destroyed vehicle. Company need to figure out how 180 different yards can with seamlessly together.

Pros

Work from home. Things are constantly changing. Positions open up but manager has to approve you and put your name out there.

Cons

My manager was very unhelpful when my position as a team lead was eliminated. I've been here 5 years plus before COVID and I'm back to square one. I feel there should have been a back up plan for us. They want you now to do the work that a lead does but for absolutely no more money.
