Pros

Still considered best in class car rental company in the world, though a lot of its former prestige is gone.

Cons

For upper mgmt, the money is in the bonuses, not salary, so when you consistently beat your business plan and have them canceled company wide due to "economic pressures" and miss out on, say, $30K+ in one year, it puts a damper on your spirits. Canceling merit bonuses hurts only the top performers, while your counterparts who work less and produce less go on their merry way.

Pros

Nice HQ building, employee discount

Cons

Treats employees at all levels as expendable. Constant revolving door of talent at all levels, with nothing ever being accomplished. Only way to get ahead is to suck up and play politics, it is no meritocracy.

Pros

The work is simple, though depending on your position there may be A LOT of work, or not much at all. I suppose that could be said about most jobs. Benefits are great.

Cons

Just about everyone hates working here. Facilities are in disrepair. Cleaning crew is nice but understaffed. Layoffs and outsourcing are becoming common. The company is moving in a new direction that will hopefully prove beneficial in global terms, but it requires the sacrifice of long-serving employees.
