Advance Auto Parts Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"I've worked for advance parts since 2019. Really great place to work, great environment, people, management"

"This company is a very educational place to work at but management can be an issue. The major problem was no flexibility in regards to time off. The company needs an updated system and technology but the staff is great and has a good work ethic."

"A great company that is customer-centric."

"The company as a whole is growing. The growth process to move up is difficult. The raises aren’t that great"

"Managers are always looking to bring in cutting edge technology and hire plus retain talent to be a leader in their industry."

"I have worked with Advance Auto for a short time but they do all they can to make their retail associates feel appreciated getting their tools and resources they need. I am happy to be part of that delivery system in the area of IT."

"AAP is 8th largest fleet in retailing the automotive parts in United States. Few of its subsidiaries are CARQUEST, Autopart International, and WorldPac."

"I used to love this company and as a mechanic would only shop at the Burlington, Iowa store for parts. They have an open door policy but if you use it you will be penalized. I have been here longer than anyone else in the store including the manager. Yet I make less than everyone else including new hires with no experience. My car broke down and I couldn't afford the parts at Advance even with my discount."

"Store management is bad, constantly changing schedules daily, district manager does not care about employees, no organization."

"I started working at Advanced a few months ago, thinking, oh, I finally got away from the lazy redneck down the street. Well, the first week seemingly went okay, working along the guy who hired me, then he quits before he gets fired on that Thursday. As time went on, I was thinking week by week, that my full time hours will finally, then the new "micro manager", i.e., Mr. Perfect came in to be the boss. A boss really shouldn't be that busy. Bossy, always going by the book. Now, despite the fact I'm still working part time status, and "he doesn't have enough hours to go around", one Saturday he tells me to clock and go home, for I made a mistake. In doing a delivery... I have never ever been sent home for that. Next week, I I'm only up to twenty hours and I cannot take this place anymore!"
