General Service Tech (Former Employee), Richmond, VA – March 24, 2012
Pros: having fun at what i was doing
Cons: store supervisiors
A typical day was to satisfy the customers to make sure they get the right service. I've learned to be more of a hands on people person. Not afraid to tell them or give good advice on a product. Management was not all that good. I think if you know about cars more then a tech, u should be in management. If you have to ask what this is and what that – more... is, your in the wrong position. Every co-worker that I had at Tire Kingdom was great. Learned a lot from them. There were no hard parts. Satisfying the customers was the most enjoyable part of the day – less
I enjoyed working at Tire Kingdom because it was a salary and commission based job. My co-workers were also pretty cool too. We came to work, handled business, but we also had fun while doing it. We had some awesome customers too.
Back in the 90's when the company was owned by Chuck Cursio, it was a great place where you were rewarded for hard work and success. Today, the company is a shell of what it once was. Your told, "Our thanks is in your paycheck" and you have one foot out the door, before you begin if you are in Management. No job security even if you succeed and top – more... Management will not support you. – less
