Employee Spotlight
Dan Miciunas, Parts & Service Director
"I get to meet new people all the time. I enjoy interacting with them on a daily basis. So many of my coworkers have been here so long that I consider them my extended family. Be prepared to work hard. this is not an easy industry to be in, but it can be very rewarding. I feel that the way Friendly Ford team has supported me over the years helps me to make good decisions that help not only the customer but the business as well."
Russ Crocilla, Product Specialist
"All that I ever heard was how Friendly Ford had great owners and management and was a great place to work for. I had to see for myself! Everyone was very right! Best ownership hands down. I have been selling cars for 30 years. I wish that the last 20 years of my career would have been at Friendly Ford. Everyone here lives by that name and you are truly treated with total respect. My role as a product specialist is to just come in everyday, do the best that I can, be a total team player. And treat all of our customers like they are part of our Friendly Ford family."
Laura Gersch, Comptroller
"I like the fact that it is a family run business. We all care about each other and really are a family. It is not an impersonal corporate type company. I feel I play an important part in making sure we remain financially stable as we continue to grow our business. Keep an open mind and try to absorb as much as you can about the unique workings of a car dealership. It is a lot of work, but it is fun!"
Samantha Wayne, Warranty Clerk
"I chose to work at Friendly Ford because I wanted to try something new. I had only ever worked in restaurants and was tired of the long nights, weekends and holiday shifts. The ability to work with customers hands on and learning something new almost everyday! When I started I knew nothing about cars and just from working here I know more then I ever thought I would! It is great to work with a family owned and operated company, the owners are hands on and truly care about their employees. I play a small part in a big company, but without each employee the company wouldn’t run as smooth. We all have a role and are important (and we feel important by the owners and management) We are a team and we all help each other out!"
Eddie Perez, Finance Manager
"While I was in school I was talking to a classmate about looking for a summer job. He told me he was working for a car dealer in Roselle, which happened to be right by my house. He told me he was happy there, it was great people to work for so I gave it a shot and here I am 21 years later! The relationships that I have built over the last 21 years and the experiences that go along with it makes it enjoyable to work here. We are a unique small family-owned and operated store that will give you the right hands-on experience that larger stores don’t offer. I work well with everyone to make sure we fulfill our customers' expectations. I assure the customers are completely satisfied with their experience here. Working here for over 20 years I have been able to work with many people throughout all departments. This has allowed me to help people every day."
