Pros

We have always had a great management team, but we are now in a position where we have a great leadership team. Mark Frissora and his team have led us through the most challenging economic environment ever experienced by our nation. Without the leadership of our senior management team, I don't think Hertz would have survived. I appreciate all of the new programming that has been provided to make us healthier and happier employees. I also appreciate the care and consideration given to compensation and benefits.

Cons

Because of the competitive nature of our business and the fact that most of our business operates on a 24 by 7 basis, it is sometimes easy to get so focused on the project or task at hand, that your personal life suffers. However, there seems to be a new emphasis on helping employees keep their priorities straight (family and health first, work projects second) and I think that goes a long way in creating a healthier and more enjoyably work environment. Even though it can be crazy sometimes, it is always exciting...with many opportunities for growth and personal development.

Pros

No micromagement , You earn incentives when customers forget to fill the gas , also when the car was damaged and they accept to pay , managers are nice , deal with Karen and difficult customers sometimes , rush hours where there is no room for cars but it is worth it

Cons

Fluctuate schedule you might work middle shift today , tomorrow you work early morning shift like 5AM and next day you work closing shift 1 to 9 PM. It is just bad for me because I just experienced personal household problem so I have only one car in the household so I had to leave

Pros

It is possible to make a difference if you are determined enough. Many engineers work hard and most try.

Cons

The company has a ton of tech debt that it recognized, but is not being addressed. Management controls the time, scope and so quality is falling. The people they have hired lack fundamentals understanding of software development practices. The company often will make decisions to save small amounts of money with their facilities and tools they give to employees without understanding the opportunity cost that was lost. Overtime is required. You can't work here if you want to have a family or keep your family from hating you. Title inflation is real. Many people are actually performing one level down from their stated title and those that are not are only not failing due to putting in crazy hours. Middle management wont stickup for their people to ensure they are not burning out. They see it happening multiple times in front of them and they do nothing.
