Cars.com has been revolutionizing the automotive industry. Our work isn’t easy, but we love doing it – and we didn’t become a market leader by shying away from a challenge.
We move fast, collaborate across functions and approach problems from every angle – all to make car shopping and ownership great experiences. And, we’ve built a culture that’s second to none: We love our work family as much as we love the work.
If you think you’re ready to bleed purple, check out our core values below. If those sound like you, keep scrolling to see our current openings.
Take action - just go. A champion of being bold doesn’t shy away from competition that seems insurmountable or opportunities that feel impossible. They think outside the box; write new stories. They feel empowered to make decisions and take action. Stop wondering “wouldn’t it be cool if...” and start living it. When this person is unsure about the next step to take, he or she starts with what they know and creates the path one step at a time, building confidence and momentum. Inaction is the enemy of innovation.
Connect with customers, partners, consumers and each other to drive success. Relationships deliver results because we can’t do our jobs without each other. When a person goes above and beyond in this area, they own their impact on our business and our partners’ success. They dive deep to understand how and why our industry and our customers tick. We’re all about providing great service - to consumers, to customers, to our communities and to each other. A true champion of this mindset takes pride in knowing that we’re making a real difference by working together.
To truly live this value, you welcome hard conversations and don’t make assumptions - ask and answer questions. Rely on each other to find solutions. Your teams should be your toughest critics, your biggest challengers and your loudest supporters.
When you do that, the journey will map itself out. And it may be different every time. For someone that’s outcome-focused, he or she doesn’t do something a certain way because “this is how we’ve always done it.” They embrace learning curves; innovate, iterate, err, improve, repeat.
The consumer is our top priority. And every day we’re hyper-focused on making them love car ownership. Someone who embraces this value makes every decision, no matter how big or small, with the consumer top of mind. They put themselves in the consumers’ shoes and make their experience better.
Our individual differences strengthen our teams, and the trust and respect we have for each other infuses passion into everything we do. Some who is sincerely open considers alternatives, looks at things through a different lens. Opening our minds and combining our different backgrounds, experiences, worldviews and expertise make us savvier problem solvers and drive better results.
