Pros

Work at home is idea for me because I am disabled. Not having to commute.

Cons

The training is very inadequate. The first two weeks were learning so much of the systems and software my head was spinning. Mine you I am no dummy, I was Supervisor then Assistant manager at the Transit center here before being declared disabled. The second week we went over things, then the fourth day in the second week, they throw us on a call, the next day we had to take calls, with that one day of taking calls. I could not get anyone on the im or chat to help me when I was stuck, then on today I get an email talking about what I did wrong. There system was so slow, you had to click one click at a time or the page was jump up, down, in the middle them you had to click one click at a time to get to where you needed to. Everyday in training there were system problems. I could go on. I did all of the training except this last week that is taking calls, and I resigned today. I can not work under those conditions, inadequate training and a poor system.

Pros

Good for gaining quick customer service experience, and the customer-facing side of the job keeps you busy.

Cons

Zero Work-Life Balance: Your personal life is virtually non-existent here. Between working incredibly long hours without overtime pay and the constant pressure to be connected, you can never truly clock out. Unrealistic Availability Expectations: The owner (Joe) requires your personal phone number to be available to anyone, at any time. You are expected to answer work calls during your off-hours, completely erasing the boundary between work and home. Lack of Management Support: U-Haul focuses entirely on the customer at the absolute expense of the employee. Management routinely allows customers to curse at and verbally abuse frontline associates without ever stepping in or backing up their staff. Flawed Technology: The internal booking and rental systems crash on a weekly basis. This leaves associates stranded, forced to repeatedly apologize to frustrated customers because the tech simply doesn't work. Poor Communication: Corporate-level communication is completely dysfunctional, making it incredibly difficult to get answers or support when things go wrong on the floor.
