Pros

The pay is good, not fair for the work load but still good. My coworkers are amazing.

Cons

Way way too many jobs scheduled in a day! Wasn't always like this, but now they schedule more jobs than they have people or even time for. And us installers are working 10-12hr days when we should only be working 8. They are literally burning us out and not even trying to understand the problems. And they are trying to fire and phase out more senior long term employees that are paid decent to instead hire new staff at bottom rates to save money and make more profit. But that's causing more warranty issues and customer satisfaction problems. Then when those problems come in management says we should ignore the bad reviews because they want to blame us to their superiors behind closed doors versus accepting the blame themselves and fixing the issue. And the managers that they do hire rarely have automotive experience and are not given proper training from corporate in any way shape or form. So even the good hires fail because they don't know our industry and aren't given the tools/training to succeed.

Pros

Working hours, easy to learn, great environment.

Cons

The 1 minute late, rule. If you’re ONE minute late from break, lunch, or even clocking in.. it counts toward your “infractions”. You can only get 3 for the first 60 days. Even if your wifi goes out, you get sick.. anything. It counts.

Pros

The fact that they will teach you and train you to install Auto Glass? Cannot answer this truthfully

Cons

I've applied twice to the tech training position. The first time I thought that I may have made an error? The Yellow Brick Rd location had adds for 18 positions available. I applied again fixing what I thought the issue to be. I was again sent an email that they were not moving to the next step with me. This makes ZERO sense. I was just recently a slot tech out of Horseshoe. I also was a tech for a company that handed a few interior pieces for Amtrak.
