      Pros

      great brand new corporate headquarters building - parking, onsite gym, cafeteria, day care center, etc. Open office environment. There were quite a few intelligent people.

      Cons

      No company leadership, constant politics, overall terribly run. Employee morale was in the dumps from the beginning, then things just kept getting worse. No strategy, constant change and none of it based in strategy. Basically everyone is chasing their tales with no vision or commitment to the future, or their employees.

      Pros

      The money is good, but only because you work so much that you don't have time to spend it.

      Cons

      Hours vs pay ratio is terrible. Multiple times I watched employees complain to high up management and every single time we were ignored. They have no appreciation for the employees hard work. Very little to nothing is done to boost employee moral. Also, if you are interviewing and they tell you that its not a sales job or you don't have to clean cars DO NOT believe them. It is a sales position and you absolutely have to clean the cars. ( -30degrees or 130 degrees). Lying to people during an interview is not a good way to start a business partnership. Being listed on the top worst companies to work for was no mistake.

      Outsourcing Mistake

      Pros

      The people that made Hertz run are people worth getting to know. They were experienced hard-working team players that helped Hertz become the company it is today. Much work was given for each of us to do but, most of the time, we did not need to carry the work home. We all worked together so that our work/home balance was acceptable.

      Cons

      I feel it unfortunate that a large company such as Hertz decided to outsource their IT workforce to IBM. Although IBM sounds acceptable, most of the work is now being done outside of the US. This places jobs that US citizens once had into the hands of non-US citizens. It's unfortunate that they made that choice. They lost a lot of their knowledge base. I do hear that Hertz is asking employees to return so they can get the work done. The Hertz rental car business has not been doing so well but it was left in poor condition by the previous CEO. Hertz is making a comeback but it will be a while before the company is the company it needs to be.
