Pros

Compensation, Overtime, Sales Experience, Gain experience in management and customer service. Learn how to run a business. Learn about and drive all kinds of cars. Hertz turns you into a wheeler and dealer, a seasoned salesperson. At first you are a wad of cookie dough and after 6 months to a year, you're carved out of wood. Nothing fazes you after you get used to being screamed on a regular basis, constantly negotiating deals and prices and difficult Stressful situations. In general work is stressful since you're constantly running but feel this has been a huge growth experience. You either naturally move up or move out so this provides for constant openings and therefore opportunities to advance in the company. Some Sales reps and managers make crazy bank with bonuses and commission. This aspect of the job, especially during high-season can be very enticing and rewarding.

Cons

Many times without enough cars to meet demand. Cost-Cutting, stingy company culture. Cleaning Cars. Short-staffed frequently. Phone ringing while another person is on hold and you're doing a rental. Screaming customers because Hertz doesn't have their car or no car at all. It is frustrating to see so much potential for the company squandered. To make customers wait 30, an hour, 2-3 hours for their car they had reserved. Being yelled at and not being able to adequately plan and prepare for your business day because you don't have the inventory or personnel.

Pros

I started a family right around the time I hired on with Hertz Equipment Rental. As my responsibilities have grown at home I have been able to take advantage of career opportunities at work and Hertz Equipment Rental compensated me for my efforts. I have recommended friends and even family members to work for this place. Hertz Equipment Rental is more than just a job, it is a place where you can have a career and take ownership of your operations and daily activities no matter where you are on the food chain. The benefits are great and Hertz Equipment Rental even offers a Pension Plan in addition to 401(K) opportunities.

Cons

As with many large companies Hertz Equipment Rental is not immune to external conditions and the size of the business can be affected by factors such as the economy or Mother Nature.
