Pros

Unfortunately there are no pros other than compensation to working at Herc Rentals in Tupelo Mississippi.

Cons

Micromanagement from a new manager who's never had a management role or any training Daily harassment from co workers Bullying- constant bullying from management Poor Communication- lack of open transparent communication. Management has a group chat with his buddies within the team. Favoritism- Management would show favoritism to his buddies within the team for promotions, assignments and recognition to higher ups. Lack of Career Development Opportunities - This is most important! As mentioned with favoritism, Management will only promote and recognize his buddies leaving others in the dark. Resistance to change - Management is not open to any ideas from team.
