Pros
Felt like being in high school again. But the best perk of working at Oreily's is the discounts you get on purchasing auto parts your self - and you can even use your employee account to give discounts to your family and friends... Every body or at least most people take advantage of this perk (even my old manager)
Cons
Minimum wage - No increase opportunities in pay raise. Male dominated. My last manager actually spoke openly about his hiring prospects as he would only hire males (no women). Prejudice towards minorities. Never cry out or call HR department claiming "sexual harassment" because when the cavalry comes to investigate instant 'retaliation consequences emerge'. You will be transferred to another store - and no consequences will be impended on your harasser especially if they were in management. Overall this may be a good gig for a high school student who is taking a shop class or college student interested in mechanic work.
