Pros

Meet great people (employees n customers(very rare)). Lots of perks such as discounts n stuff.

Cons

Being in the office by yourself n ur area manager doesn't do their job. Our area runs out of cars all the time n it seems like no one in mag ament cares if we do. Tired of getting cursed out by customers every other day about not having cars for their resverations.

Pros

Weekly pay. great co-workers. Having the chance to occasionally meet semi-important/famous people.

Cons

NEVER a set work weeks' hours, constant monitoring of sales #'s and nitpicking of them, decieving customers into optional services to put a smile on "daddys" face...aka anyone above you that watches for it. Write-ups if you fail to meet your sales goals. (the only way you will ever hot them is to cleverly sneak them i to the customers' rental rate) example: over-quoting to include one of these features and pitch it like it comes included in the price, then crossing your fingers and hoping they don't look at the contract! Sending a car one a one-way destination that has any of these conditions, including, but not limited to: brake light out, alignment out of whack, expired inspection, expired registration (both expired would be automatic one way regardless of reservation class size) cracked windshield, broken seatbelt buckle, leaking tire, headlight out, maintenance required dash light on, etc. Let some other location down south, up north, or out west deal with it. That'll solve it.
