Pros

I have been with Hertz since March of 2003. I work in the maintenance department. I make over $25 an hour and $37.50 on overtime. We make on average at least $60,000 a year and some of us have even made over a $1000,000. The reason why is because of the local 222 Teamsters the Union. Other departments can make excellent $$$ if you can upsell with customers. Excellent PTO. Decent health insurance.

Cons

Management is very unorganized. Understaffed in a lot of departments. At times you will be forced to work a lot of hours.

Pros

Great place to work in tandem with other professionals in your trade, always had a feeling of "family" working alongside my peers. We come together when times are tough, this is very rewarding,

Cons

The current economic and geopolitical spectrum have been proving a challenge to this industry as a whole, thankfully we are a resilient outfit with the best people at the helm.

Pros

It is a decent place to work with a steady environment and meaningful day-to-day responsibilities. Overall, it's not a bad company to be a part of if you are looking for stability and purpose in your tasks.

Cons

The internal culture is highly political, and professional advancement often depends more on favoritism than merit. You frequently have to play corporate games and kiss up to management just to get ahead or be noticed.
