Pros

Decent Pay, great cars, great benefits, and room for growth within company if you out in the work.

Cons

There isn't proper staffing so you are kind of left doing multiple jobs, management doesn't really show proper incentive and motivation for employees, unstable structure because there is constant changes at headquarters. Some other locations aren't very easy to work with considering we are all supposed to be on the same team. Expect to work 6-7 days a week during season.

Thank you for taking the time to review Sixt as a current employee! It’s great that you are taking advantage of company benefits and are thinking towards opportunities for advancement. At Sixt we strive to grow our business organically and allow our internal employees to develop in the direction of their goals. Being more of a premium rental car company, Sixt focuses on hiring very polished and professional employees. Even though the hiring process may take longer, we assure you that the quality of new hires will be exceptional. Our recruiting teams’ center of attention is gaining career driven individuals that would like to grow within our organization. Depending on the market, the perfect profile can be challenging to find. We understand that being understaffed puts great pressure on current employees, but we assure you that our recruiting team is working diligently to find all locations the proper quality candidates. In regards to your work schedule, it is true that during season we may need you to work more than usual, however, your managers will ask if you would be willing and able to do overtime. We only require you to work a full time schedule of up to 40 hours a week. Finally, It concerns us that you feel management does not provide proper incentive and motivation. We realize that this is a huge factor with team moral and we encourage all of our branch managers to uplift their team! We would strongly encourage you to discuss this with your Regional Manager or call our HR department at 954-874-1793. We value you as an employee of Sixt and want you to be happy with your role and outlook. If we can help in anyway with any of the above concerns please let us know. All conversations will be kept completely anonymous.

Pros

It's an unrecognized job by management, they don't care about you unless you make them more money so they get bonuses. All they care about is performance metrics, no matter what you do to your co-workers.

Cons

Expected to work in an outdated color arrangement that is mostly black. When it's 100 degrees out, on hot asphalt, not ideal. They expect you to log the tiniest damage so that they can bill the customer. Do they not take depreciation on the cars. Their fuel gages are wonky and don't work right. I believe they are charging customers for fuel when they shouldn't.
