Danielle Martin was hired there as a receptionists and within a year or 2 she is the GM, she knows nothing about cars or the business. Jim Kitzmiller has his head up his butt and she will run the place further into the ground. They only promoted her because she is female and are trying to groom her to get another dealership because of being a woman it will have way more of a chance. She is a bitch on top of it all and will not take constuctive criticism at all. I worked there as the used car manager and within 30 days took them from an 88 car store to a 120 car store and added more than 100k in gross plus stopped all their wholesale losses among many other changes. I was fired for no reason and as soon as I left their numbers went right back down the toilet so I was vindicated to say the least. I bumped horns with her many times on how to appraise cars because she has no idea what she is doing. NONE. She was abrasive will customers as well as staff and has no idea how to run a store. This was early 08' I cannot believe she is still there OMG, Mr. Piercy needs to get rid of Kitzmiller cause he is costing him millions, literally. My whole staff can back everything I'm saying as well, grown men were crying when I was fired because they new their paycheck would get smaller. Another bonehead move by Kitzmiller, he had a 23 year old finance director, 23, who was originally hired as a receptionists too. within a year or 2 she is running the finance dept. OMG again, I couldn't believe my eyes, and she could not get a deal bought to save her life!!!!! That store with the right people in place could kick so much ass, but with Kitzmiller at the helm, it will never happen, too bad Mr Piercey. ultimately all your fault buddy because Ktz is a bubblehead who is either having sex with these morons to give them promotions they dont deserve, who knows, but a Honda dealership is too valuable to have a bunch of 20 something no experience girls running it buddy boy, wise up!!!!
Cons: holds a position not qualified for in the least
