Pros

There is a significant opportunity for career growth for entry level Management Trainees in the Off Airport division known as HLE. HLE focuses on the insurance replacement car rental niche.

Cons

The greatest downside, particularly as a college graduate, is that the work of a Management Trainee is not what you dreamed about during Accounting 101. The average branch functions with only a MT, an Assistant Branch Manager and a Branch Manager. These three employees perform all the work. We rent cars, clean cars and deliver cars. MTs do more of the grunt work than the BM or ABM, but I see it as paying my dues.

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.
