Being a location manager with Hertz, at least in my very short lived experience, means that you will work approximately 55 hours per week without overtime. If you have a family, especially small children, and being a parent to them or a spouse to your husband/wife is important to you, do not accept this job. However, my main reason for leaving so abruptly was because I was absolutely appalled at the complete lack of any sort of a training or even on-boarding program. How can someone be expected to perform a job/navigate computer systems that they are completely unfamiliar with if they are never afforded an opportunity to learn them. In my brief 4 weeks employed here, I could not get a straight forward answer on training, expectations, or even an overview of my core roles. You know, it's disappointing really....and perhaps I'm being naive, but I truly expected a company that operates internationally and has been around as long as Hertz has to be a little more structured, a little more organized, and to have a higher amount of self-respect than to treat tenured, and new employees the way that it does. I was really disappointed that I couldn't offer more help to my location, but in the end, the apathy of my area manager and other location managers led me to make the decision to walk off the job mid-shift, which I have never done at any job I've ever held. Even after contacting Human Resources multiple times regarding these concerns, little was done to resolve the matter.
