Awesome place to work!
|
|
Continued training gives employees every advantage needed to be the best at what they do everyday!
|
I cant honestly think of any. I drive 40 miles every day to come to work here. That would be the only con that comes to mind.

OK place to work.
|
|
Always using the latest and greatest technology, and you get to see some pretty sweet cars. Very fair pay for a job that doesn't require any sort of degree. In regards to personal/home life, upper management cares a lot about their employees and will go out of their way to help whenever they can.
|
You are constantly being micromanaged by both middle and upper management. Simple mistakes are met with harsh criticism and upper management can be corrosive and degrading and that negativity can be very hard to leave at work. Any sort of initiative and/or creativity is regarded as "making your own rules" and is harshly frowned upon. Rifts between middle and upper management are not very well hidden and can make for a very tense work environment. PAM's used to be a very fun place to work, but the environment was steadily becoming more and more toxic before I left.

Take a deep breath before confronting employees. Mistakes are bound to happen, and most employees have the best of intentions, blowing up at them and degrading them only makes for a more cancerous work environment.

We appreciate the many positive things you have to say about PAM's Auto. We also respect your other comments. To say employees are \"constantly being micro-managed\" is not a fair statement.

Communication is the best form of teamwork and we strive to create a very positive environment that puts the overall team first in every situation. We feel it is important to communicate with employees proactively, whether those conversations are considered positive or negative, everyone is entitled to their perspective. We apologize if you feel you experienced an incident where a manager \"blew up\" on you and thus created a \"toxic\" work environment as that is not even close to what we want our employees to experience working here.

I would have appreciated more honesty during my interview about the position. What we discussed in the interview was not the position you wanted in your organization. I understand you need to be meticulous and orderly but it would have been nice to be allowed to play to my strengths instead of being coerced into a 'mold'.

One of the pros you listed references our thorough documentation process, which covers in great detail the expectations and job duties associated with the position, so it's unfortunate that you feel we were somehow dishonest during the interview process. I would say we are very open about the expectations of any position here. For example, our job adds are very descriptive and we have nothing to hide during the interview process as we are more than open about any questions any applicant may have and we welcome those questions. To say that we are dishonest is quite contrary to what and who we really are.", "responseOriginal": null, "countNotHelpful": 0}]
