Inexperienced DMs ruin progress - Store Manager AutoZone Employee Review

co workers treat you like family

low pay compared to competitors

You had a job and received a check.

The company required you to have an open schedule that would change weekly based on their needs. The pay was extremely low for adults trying to find a job. It doesn't make sense that they want you to train to be a parts pro and you'd get maybe a 2-3 dollar raise if you became a manager. Which still wasn't a livable wage. This company also offered no commission compared to the competition. Yet they wanted you to make sure you sell unnecessary little items like battery or bulb grease with every related sale. When winter came around, they called it the slow season and cut everyone's hours as if your bills changed because they lose sales during these two months. They come out with high profit annually though. If management above you at your store was stagnant and not moving up or around you weren't moving up either.
