Pros

I was compensated well for my job.

Cons

The pay was extremely low for the people I was hiring. I was told to keep making false promises to new candidates. I hired people on Monday and had them in orientation on Tuesday. The pay was so low that people walked out my office and never showed up again. All the companies in the area paid more than we did. The union environment was very damaging to the companies growth. Interviewed on Monday started on Tuesday and Paid 4 weeks later. Horribly rude to employees made it seem that it was the employees fault for the companies horrible way of doing business. Underpaid workers and had a mindset that you want this job or not. While other companies paid 4-5 dollars more than they did.

Pros

I've been with Avis Budget Group for 16 years, and one of the biggest reasons I've stayed is the opportunity for growth. I've had multiple promotions throughout my career because the company has consistently been willing to invest in people who work hard, take ownership, and deliver results. No two days are ever the same, which keeps the work interesting. I've had the chance to lead teams in multiple markets, work alongside talented leaders, and continually develop new skills. The business is fast-paced, but it gives you the opportunity to make decisions, solve problems, and have a real impact on both customers and employees. I've worked with leaders who genuinely care about developing talent, and many of the people I've worked with have built long-term careers here. If you're willing to put in the effort, there are significant opportunities to grow professionally and take on increasing levels of responsibility. The company also continues to invest in new technology and operational improvements, making it easier to serve customers and support employees.

Cons

Like any customer-facing operation, there are busy periods that can be demanding, especially during holidays and peak travel seasons. Success requires flexibility, strong communication, and the ability to adapt quickly to changing business needs. The pace isn't for everyone, but for people who enjoy problem-solving, leadership, and working in an environment where every day is different, those challenges become opportunities to learn and grow.
