Pros

The people within your department your fellow full time people are very nice and respectful people.

Cons

Management is HORRIBLE. Customers are suppose to have a nice in and out experience and we try to supply it but Hertz at Atlanta Airport is horribly managed they cannot keep the accurate amount of vehicle to supply to reservation customers which led customers to have a sour experience within 2 years Atlanta Airport location fired 2 Area Managers (big bosses) 1 of which has a habit of being to playful with female employees. Fired 2+ level 2 managers again 1 of whom had a sexual harassment case pending also was caught steal rental cars. Lastly the CEO "retired" after being accused of criminal activities with stocks from 2011 to 2013 Overall stay away from this company especially in Atlanta.

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.
