Pros

I had a great team, and a couple of my fellow managers were decent people. Not much outside of that.

Cons

Expectations were not always clear and your accomplishments were not enough. This company is really full of themselves - Just the usual corporate BS! Superiors are micromanaging and do not welcome new ideas (or outsiders). If you question anything, they'll treat you like you're a problem! Yet, they want you to waste time fixing things that aren't broken. If your peers don't like your answer or solution, they'll immediately go to your boss's boss to complain and let it trickle down. Teamwork? They never heard of it! Discuss an issue openly - why bother? It's more efficient to backstab instead! Training is non-existent and relies on people's notes and outdated SOPs. This is a national company, and they don't even have a formal training department?! Benefits were awful and expensive. I've worked for smaller companies that offered better health plans, and multiple carriers. There are reasons why they aren't #1 in their industry.

Thank you for sharing your experience, and we’re glad to hear that you appreciated your team. It’s important to us that – no matter the position or location – employees feel valued and set up for success. That’s why we emphasize open conversations with leaders and team members, a dedicated onboarding experience with training programs, and plenty of opportunities to seek additional support and feedback. We work hard to have a culture of consistent improvement, and new ideas shared in a supportive environment help us improve processes and experiences for customers and employees alike. If you feel like this wasn’t part of the experience you had, we would be happy to hear more of your specific concerns at Careers@HercRentals.com.

Pros

Freedom, set your own schedule.

Cons

Very little training. Your territory is farmed out and all the good customers belong to someone else and it doesn’t matter that their in your territory if they have them before you
