CFO Erik Day on how employment practices could change with the industry shift to electric vehicles: “We ultimately will align pay plans with manufacturer derivatives, which will be based around training, product knowledge and support of electric infrastructure. I think this shift will transform the customer buying experience and push more of the transactions to be online. Between the manufacturer and consumer requiring less of the traditional sales process, certain roles within the organization will shift into more of a delivery specialist position.”

Talent, Recruitment and Training Manager Tiffany Le on offering a long-term career path: “We offer opportunities for new hires and current employees to develop professionally by providing them with the proper resources to succeed. For example, we send employees to various trainings and lay out career paths for different sales and service roles. The dealership strives to promote from within.”

Human Resources Manager Kareena Diaz on diversity, equity and inclusion: “We will continue to foster an encouraging work atmosphere that will increase company productivity and employee retention.”

Le on recruiting and retaining women: “First, we establish a healthy and positive work environment for women in our workplace by hosting female-centered events and seminars promoting empowerment. Through our mentorship and training programs, we encourage advancement in women’s equality. Today we have women succeeding across all levels of our organization.”

Centre Manager Danny Palenzuela on changes to promote work-life balance: “Due to the inventory shortage, we have set up a more flexible sales schedule. We have also given employees who are able to work from home the opportunity to do so a couple times a week. A positive work-life balance is important to our organization, and we will continue to focus on this as best as we can.”
