Pros

Real potential for advancement, well-rounded experience, team oriented environment, and coworkers become “family.”

Cons

Starting pay is really low and it takes a lot of work to hit your sales goal while the bonus schedule is confusing. Also, dressing up in professional attire and having to clean cars in them before going on sales calls is discouraging.

Pros

Co-workers were awesome to work with. Management was ok, just think they need to listen to more employee feedback.

Cons

50+ hours, no real breaks, angry and crazy customers, understaffed at certain locations where you end up renting cars, answering phones, picking up customers, washing the cars and trying to do everything while keeping excellent customer service. And crappy pay, on top of that with no commission.

Pros

Due to high turnover there is lots of opportunity for a skilled semi-intelligent person with low morals to climb the ladder. Company car is nice and no one follows policy so managers drive whatever they want.

Cons

There is turnover for a reason. 3 CEO and 5 VP. Front counter is around 40% and management slightly below that. Every week you are forced to make decisions that could put you under the knife because hertz has lost so much brain power and know how since merging with Dollar and Thrifty rental car and moving headquarters to Florida. Let's put it this way, at the one of our quarter review no one (including ZVP to top HR executives) could state our company's values.
