Pros

Your co-workers might be as cool as mine were

Cons

You'll barely have the tools to work with. Training is awkward You're worked long hours and sometimes you need to stay off the clock while working customers will be dissatisfied as a result of elements you cant control like running out of cars. The pay is little and they frown at overtime You will probably have to head a location and still get paid entry level Your area manager will be out of reach when the heat is on Locations are understaffed; youre the driver, the car prep, the cust serv rep, everything

Pros

They provide a very basic model of how account management and sales work in the business world for recent graduates and do have a program in place to foster internal growth. If a Location Manager position or higher is achieved, Hertz provides unlimited use of company cars anywhere in the country for business and personal use. Insurance and gas are included with this perk. A competitive salary and good benefit structure is awarded to those who work through the Management Training Program.

Cons

The hours front-line managers are expected to work are often outside the realm of possibility. Some weeks, no exaggeration, I worked upwards of 65 hours, including Saturdays. Managers are expected to keep costs down by decreasing overtime in branches open for 11 hours a day with a skeleton staff. Any type of feedback is perceived as insubordinate behavior. In the industry, there is a very thin margin of profitability and costs are incurred that are outside of the control of management, (i.e. vehicle damage, rising depreciation cost, etc.). In the eyes of management, there is no reson for a loss.

Pros

Great associates, good cars, good foundation.

Cons

The Leadership (SMG) do not care about the people. They lie to the people. Three layoffs in 12 months, promising what ever they have to the don’t deliver. The CEO told Wall Street that we were in testing for a huge Technology Project, and we were not. It has cost the company $M and had not delivered anything.
