Was speaking to a guy yesterday from our local dealership & he was saying its a great place to work & he really enjoies it. He works in sales & he was saying the pay isn't bad either!
I used to work for Audi & everyone hated working for them. From sales people to the mechanics!
Was quite suprised when he said everyone loves it 
Is this just a one off or are they actually OK?

it all depends on the delership, not the brand
for example VW are  to work for, but the company i was working for were cunts, thats why ive moved to another delership, produt is just as bad, but there ok to work for from what ibe heard

A guy was working in a small garage near us that my Mum and Step Dad use and then he went to work at the Audi dealer as a mechanic.
He quit after a month cos he said they weren't allowed to have the garage doors open at Audi while they were working cos people dont want other people to see that their Audis are in the garage being worked on and there was other crazy shit like that he didn't like. So he took a pay cut and went back to where he worked originally.

We used to have them open when I worked there
Funny watching this guys face as he walked by & saw me taking his S4 engine to bits just to change some heat shields 
(You have to take the engine out to change them, I was doing it right)
