What is your policy on side work?
We have open shop every Thursday night where techs are allowed to work on personal vehicles along with friend and family members vehicles.
Do you offer any skills training or continuing education opportunities?
Always! Our technicians are constantly training to stay ahead of the game. In classroom for hands on training, on line for emerging issues, new vehicle systems and general brush up, ASE certifications and more. Once a technician is ready to go World Class, we will get them there by enrolling them in the classes and of course, Broadway does pay for all training!
Can you describe opportunities for career growth at your business?
We pride ourself on internal advancement. In the shop, depending on where a technician starts, we offer opportunities to keep growing. Youth Apprentice, Quick Lane, Upsell Technicians, Alignment Technicians, Mentor/Apprentice Assignments, Truck Shop/Diesel Technicians, Reconditioning Technicians and Flat Rate Technicians! Broadway does not limit the advancement of our technicians to the shop only. If you want to make your way out into the drive or the parts department, your personal career goals are improtant to us and we want to help you get there.
Can you describe your performance review process?
Performance feedback is important to Broadway. When someone joins our team, we ask them to conduct a 60 day review of Broadway to give us feedback as to how their first 60 days have gone. Then we sit down and do a 90 day review to ensure you are on the right track of learning. Annual reviews happen thereafter. Outside of the traditional review, feedback is continuously provided by our leaders to help you continue to grow.
What type of safety training is required?
Safety is key in our shop. Safety training is done upon hire and then annually. Hazard Communication, PPE, Automotive Lift training, Emergency Response and Safe Driving to name a few!
Can you describe how Techs work with and mentor younger techs?
Our seasoned technicians who have desire to help coach the newer technicians become mentors. They are assigned an “up and comer” and take them under their wings to teach them the trade. The mentor/ apprentice assignment can last from 3-9 months depending on the skill of the apprentice. The mentor earns money by having an apprentice so it’s a win-win-win situation!
How does your shop get involved with the local community?
Broadway has been in the Green Bay community for over 104 years. We’re proud to build relationships and support important community efforts, including: CP Center, American Cancer Society, Northeast Wisconsin Veteran’s Treatment Court, Helping out our American Heroes (HOOAH), Salvation Army, Willow Tree Cornerstone Childhood Advocacy Center and many more!
Do you do anything with local high schools or tech schools to encourage more students to enter the profession?
We are proud of the relationships we have build with the local high schools and technical colleges over the years. We get into the high school classrooms and teach interpersonal and interviewing skills and we have our shop foreman go into the classroom and help the students learn what’s under the hood! At the technical college level, we host different events on campus to make sure they are aware of what Broadway has to offer and we sponsor a number of their automotive fundraising events. We have provided cars to both the high school and college level classes so they are able to use them in lab.

What do your in-person interviews entail?
Applicants will first meet with our corporate recruiter so we can determine if the applicant is a good "culture" fit. During this time we hope to learn about a few different things. What kind of education/experience the candidate brings with them, what they want to do in the future, and what they want to find in their next employer. We'll take time to discuss the job, benefits, culture and any other questions we can answer. They will then be asked to interview with the hiring managers if it is determined to be a good match for both the company and the interviewee.
