"It is a great company to work bad thing pay is not best"
Former Employee•Senior Sales Consultant
July 3, 2022•Los Angeles, CA
The company is a great place to start working in automotive industry. As a sales consultant you guide customers sometimes from beginning of a transaction sometimes halfway. Make sure you pay attention to small details when inputting customer information. Some managers have favorites, in sales you can make good money if you work a lot of hours.
"horrible"

if u have any kinda voice and speak up for yourself.. this is not the job for u.

"Fun and inviting workplace that demands strong work ethic. "
Current Employee•Sales Consultant
June 30, 2022•Buena Park, CA
Carmax is a great place to start or continue your career. The company is continuing to grow and always looks to promote from within.
Based on your skills and your drive to learn and grow there are many opportunities to move up within the company and increase your pay. This is a company that care deeply about having an environment that people feel safe and wanted. Culture and integrity is something that is constantly talked about within the company.
Management is generally kind and helpful. Periodically will ask how you are doing. Work schedules for the most part require you to work weekends and at times may feel like your second home. That being said the company does encourage work life balance and management do what they can to facilitate it.
Pros:
The people I work with and the sense of the company having my back.
Cons:
Work weekends, majority of holidays. Cleanliness of the store could be better, maintain things better and not just opting out for the least expensive option.
"Just okay"
Former Employee•Sales
June 30, 2022•Norcross, GA
It is just ok, very structured (no critical thinking allowed). It is a good part time job, but not a place to make a career. 1 or 2 decent managers, but the rest are incompetent.
