Pros

It´s an amazing business, nobody makes what we do selling the big quantity of equipment, and it helps you to grow professionally because employees are very important for the company

Cons

In Mexico, due to the culture, people wait a lot to start consigning and delivering their equipment. The sale grows more than 50% 2 weeks before the sale. Suddenly you have a bunch of work waiting for you.

Work in an environment where you walk on eggshells every day; hoping you don't p*ss off the boss

Business Outlook

Pros

Honestly, can't think of anything. There is a subsidized cafeteria on site in their head office. The portions are small and they serve these overpriced meals repeatedly week after week. Free coffee/tea.

Cons

Ritchie Bros. management is highly skilled in creating disgruntled employees. Employee turnover is extremely high. Company hires staff on contract to avoid compensating employees fairly. This company is primarily successful due to lack of market competition; however, times are changing. Working here was an absolute low point in my career. A HUGE REGRET.
