Growing People Through Work– Jiffy Lube Program Designed to Stop the Turnover Cycle
Many industries struggle with employee turnover and the auto industry is no exception.
When new employees join our team, it’s not unlikely that some have bounced around from job to job before finding solid ground to build a better life for themselves and their families.
“We are working hard to stop the turnover cycle by providing the most advanced training available in our industry and through our award-winning Growing People through Work program,” shares Steve Sanner, the CEO and President of Jiffy Lube of Indiana, which owns 50 locations state-wide. “Everyone who comes to work for Jiffy Lube is on a path of self-improvement and is working hard to improve their lives. Everything we do is designed to encourage and support our team members to be their best selves at work and in all areas of their lives.”
Award-Winning Training
Growing People Through Work is an award-winning training program we created to help our team not only get exceptional technical training, but also develop key life skills such as goal setting, financial planning, and time management.
Key components of our system include:
- Industry-leading compensation

- Personal and professional goal setting
- Home buying program for managers
- College scholarships for employees’ children
- Flexible scheduling for coaching youth sports teams and volunteering to help in our communities
Guidance to Grow
We talk about the importance of developing a relationship with a banker at all stages of your financial life, particularly so you can be aware of the rules of Financial Wellness, and wealth creation. We’ve partnered with Key Bank to provide direct support for our team members.
Patricia Castañeda is the banker who provides the program’s coordination. “Playing a game without knowing the rules brings about chaos, but when you have the rules available (particularly when it comes to credit) you give yourself the opportunity to strategize and move towards a position of creating wealth. It’s as basic as knowing your spending habits, creating a budget, setting goals, and developing good credit habits,” Castañeda shares.
The importance of goal setting extends beyond financial literacy. When our team members attend the Growing People Through Work program they take time to sit down with their managers to set personal and professional goals.
