"I’ve worked for cars.com since 2015. The company has a solid mission and passionate employees, and offers stellar benefits and flexibility. Cars is making great strides to embrace change and push through some of the growing pains of their spinoff as an independent company that is now publicly traded."

"I worked for the company for 2 years. It is a good place for a first job, lots of young people, some still play with their toys, which can be annoying at times. Hard to concentrate on your assignments sometimes, because of the noise and the open space"
