Pros

Pay, vacation time, benefits, and thats it

Cons

Hr doesn't care when reports are made about safety and inappropriate behavior. Management from local to regional are the aggressors and sweep everything under the rug. The lazy are rewarded and the hard workers get the worse end of it and eventually let go

Pros

Bonuses. No micromanaging if you do your job well. Management is cool including some sales guys.

Cons

Long hours and will get longer if you’d like to move up. Family business you might not get promoted over someone’s cousin/nephew

Herc Rentals Response

We appreciate your honest feedback. It seems that you enjoyed the bonus structure of your position and the team you collaborated with in the area. There aren't many dull days at Herc Rentals, but without effective time management, the days can feel long. It’s concerning to hear that you believe nepotism influenced internal mobility at your location. We take your comments seriously and are open to discussing your thoughts.
