Reviews for Technician at RAC
Falling Behind in Pay, Toxic Culture
Roadside Technician (Current Employee) - Yorkshire - 6 April 2023
Pay has fallen behind industry standard and only way to make good money is to work very long hours. The money if not worth working late nights, weekends, bank holidays and putting yourself in constant danger at the roadside. The culture is toxic with management having favourites and people who’s “faces fit” being treated with extra benefits and given extra opportunities. Little to No progression is available so it’s very hard to build or progress in a career which makes the job feel like a dead end.
Pros
Own Van, no commuting, tools provided
Cons
Very Long hours to actually earn decent money, toxic culture, no progression

Plenty of freedom to make your own decisions
Roadside Technician (Former Employee) - Bristol - 2 August 2022
No commute to work. Great meeting new people everyday. Great benefits, holiday etc. everything supplied to do the job. Plenty of back up and support. But workload gets overwhelming at times. Constant management and system/procedure changes. Constantly trying something they think is new but has been tried before. Opportunities to progress within the company are there but you are expected to give up your free time to get yourself noticed by upper management.
Pros
Everything supplied, very generous holiday
Cons
Shift work, very busy and can be stressful

Fantastic Job
Roadside Technician (Current Employee) - Bescot - 13 August 2021
Current patrol, would encourage any technician if confident with diagnosing vehicles, good with customers and want to put in the graft to apply. The best job within the Motor Trade hands down and I love what I do!
Pros
Lots, take van home, no commute before work
Cons
Can be lonely at times, the weather
