Pros

The people are fun and I you are around a cool environment with private aviation.

Cons

The commissions and bonuses were always too hard to obtain. Base pay was not enough for the amount of hours and work put in. They really tried to dangle the idea of making more money through sales, but made things out of reach.

Pros

You meet a lot of great people, from FBO employees, to co workers, pilots, flight attendants. By far my favorite part of working at Go Rentals was making friends, and getting to serve the same faces time & time again.

Cons

Management just does not care about hourly employees. Simply said. The way management talks and treats hourly employees is atrocious. It may be isolated to the location I worked at. Upper management simply does not care about anything that doesn't have to do with having more money in their pockets unfortunately. They will talk to you, tell you they care about you, then turn around and slight you, take money out of your pocket, etc. This company was recently acquired by Red Bird Capital, and got a contract with Signature Aviation. You would think this would benefit everyone, wrong. Significant lay offs, hours cut, commission structure obliterated, and bonuses eliminated for hourly employees in place of a $3/hour raise (see hours cut). Additionally, the company does not match 401k, and also went from fully covering your health care, to only covering half, this takes $50-$63 from every paycheck, combine this with every other pay cut implemented.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are grateful to hear that you enjoyed working with the incredible individuals in the aviation and FBO communities and that building meaningful relationships was a highlight during your time with Go Rentals. We are proud of the strong connections we foster both within our team and with the partners and guests we serve. We regret, however, that your experience with management did not align with the values we strive to uphold as a company. The concerns you’ve raised about communication, treatment of hourly employees, and the recent changes to our compensation and benefits structure are taken very seriously. While we recognize that operational changes have been challenging, these decisions were made with the company's long-term sustainability in mind. That being said, it is never our intention to make any team member feel undervalued or unheard. We are committed to supporting our employees and ensuring that they are treated with the respect and care they deserve. We are constantly evaluating how we can better communicate and provide opportunities for growth and success for all team members, including our hourly employees who play a critical role in our success. We appreciate your candid advice regarding management practices and will use your input to continue refining our approach. Thank you again for your time at Go Rentals, and for sharing your perspective.

Pros

Cheap employee rentals and commission

Cons

This company purposely understaffed at every location that they have so they don’t have to have that many people on payroll. You will spend sometimes time all day driving delivering cars annd cleaning and picking up cars to different hotels or locations 1 to 2 or even three hours away. You can’t use your PTO until you commit your life to this company for a year which is beyond insane considering that life happens there’s lots of favoritism and you’re doing majority of the work building the CEOs dream. This job can get so exhausting. You may be scheduled 9 to 5 but you may not get off till 730 or eight. There’s lots of micromanaging which can literally drive you insane and lots of passive aggressiveness. These people literally will say verbally it’s profit over people. They don’t really care about you if I could give this company zero stars I would. A lot of people this company don’t have an identity outside of their management role, which is why this whole job becomes who they are and they can get very nasty. for a company that makes millions of dollars every year and has almost A list celebrities as their clientele the amount of commission you give your employees is poor and greedy .. 0.0035%

Pros

-You get to drive some cool cars -A lot of downtime during slow seasons (if you like that sort of thing). I regularly got away with playing video games at the desk for hours at a time during slow periods -Happy customers are the norm. You will very rarely deal with upset customers, as the majority of the clientele are willing to pay any price for a nice car. -Most of the low-level employees are cool and friendly

Cons

-Management is utterly incompetent. The vast majority of management has never worked at the customer service level within this company and has a very limited understanding of how things operate. They are constantly throwing out new ideas with little logic behind them, just hoping that something will stick and be marginally effective. You will frequently be given direction that contradicts directions you were given before. You will be reprimanded and disciplined when something goes wrong, regardless of whether the issue was a direct result of instructions you were given. Management will give you direction that makes zero sense from a business standpoint (ex: lowering rental rates with the goal of generating more rentals with zero evidence that doing so will actually result in increased rentals, you will then be blamed for the decrease in revenue). Location and regional management will completely ignore revenue generation in lieu of hitting pointless metrics that lead to them receiving a larger bonus. Upper management does not care about customer or partner satisfaction unless it involves a potential client that they are actively trying to win a large amount of business from. Upper management largely ignores the job performance of lower management, but will jump at the opportunity to terminate someone for personal reasons. -Many locations are very slow, or have very slow seasons. Location-level employees have little control over business generation. Since commission is part of employee compensation, this frequently results in low commission payouts -Commission is painfully low. 0.35% - 0.5% of revenue, depending on position. This means that at a location generating $100k/month (average for the company), you will only earn $350 - $500 in commissions. Meanwhile, the company will pay hotel concierges 10%-20% for any business they send your way. This means that a concierge can easily earn more for a single rental than you do in an entire month, and you will have to personally deliver the commission checks to those concierges. -Detailers make no commission whatsoever while doing all of the physical work for rentals -Sick time is accrued at a rate of approximately 80 hours/year while working full-time, but the company will limit the amount you can use to whatever state/local law allows. For example, in California, the company will limit you to 5 sick days/year. This means that you will constantly be accruing more sick pay than you can use, and the limit resets at the beginning of every calendar year. This creates an environment where employees will use the remainder of their allowable sick days at the end of the year, because if they don't, they effectively lose that sick time. It also leads employees to regularly come in to work sick because they are not allowed to use more sick time, regardless of how much they may have accrued. I got sick more during my time with Go Rentals than at any other company I've worked for because people were constantly coming in sick. -Pay in general is low. The company touts "Five-Star Service", expecting customer service to be on par with that of a 5-star hotel, but they do not want to pay for it. You can easily make more money flipping burgers at In-N-Out. -The company does not give regular raises. One time, our district manager said to us verbatim, "cost-of-living raises don't exist". At the time of my departure from Go Rentals, no one at my location had received a raise in two years. Not only that, but from August 2024 - January 2025, we actually received 3 consecutive pay cuts. On top of all that, the last raise we received two years earlier was intended to offset a change in commission structure that resulted in drastically lower commissions. -There will be times management asks you to do things that are flat-out unsafe or illegal. The most common examples are 1) driving a car to Pep Boys for tire repair when the tire has a nail in the tread or a sidewall bulge; and 2) delivering vehicles to customers at the airport terminal even though the company is not legally permitted to do so. I personally experienced a tire blowout on the freeway due to management requiring me to drive a vehicle with a visibly damaged tire, and I received numerous tickets from traffic enforcement officers at the terminal.
