What do you like about working at Kauffman Tire?
"Knowing that we offer the lowest prices and are giving customers a great deal."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Plan on having zero free time. You WILL work late hours. Only day you can be sure you're off is Sunday because the company is closed that day. Forget doctor appointments, or Dentist appointments. You will not be given lunch breaks, and if you do, they are only 30 minutes. Also, be prepared to be clean shaven, no facial hair, unless you want to look like a cop or child molester, you are allowed a mustache only."
What don't you like about working at Kauffman Tire?
"No break rooms. No eating on property, you must take your break in your car. Managers do not get lunch breaks. Managers work six days a week. Managers work 7a-7p everyday. If you are on vacation, they will call you in if they know you aren't out of town. They don't believe in allowing their employees to have the time off they've earned unless its justified time off only. You can't use a week of vacation to stay at home and do chores, you will be called in. Employee discount is the same as customers get with coupons. Hourly employees cannot exceed 40 hours a week, most full time are scheduled 35. Upper management doesn't care or have ever worked in the positions below them. They don't understand what its like to be me, but like to tell me how to do my job. You are talked down to and given orders...this is a practice from the top of the chain that trickles down to everyone beneath. They can transfer you without notice or concern. Just like a baseball player, if they want you to work in a store on the other side of the state, you will or you can forget about being promoted because you aren't a team player."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Listen to your employees. Have a comments box or something that someone can write how they feel about things, without knowing who wrote it. That way they won't walk around feeling like they have a target on their back. Walk a mile in our shoes and see if your big ideas are working. Just because one store can do it, doesn't mean that one store loves doing it, or it's the right answer."
