Pros

Get to drive around nice cars, meet a lot of different people, great co workers, you are part of the largest rental car company in the world

Cons

Extremely picky customers that expect way too much from a car rental company, work alone almost all the time, very difficult to multitask when working alone, clean cars, bad pay, all upper management sees are numbers and they don't treat you as a person, work at branches that are understaffed, few advancement opportunities

Pros

Company car, stable company, pension plan, 401K plan, health benefits.

Cons

Management out of touch with reality when it comes to setting goals and employee development. Long hours not compensated by a decent wage, washing cars with suit and tie on, horrible company culture only intensified by incompetent middle and upper management.

Pros

Great team of co-workers, decent benefits, and great learning opportunities/training.

Cons

In my experience I saw upper management treat subordinates like slaves and workhorses, no work/life balance, upper management doesn't talk to you --more like at you. Expect to work really long hours and be thrown under the bus. They have a way to make you feel incompetent even though you've poured so much energy into your projects. The company is so huge it feels like there are too many cooks in the kitchen and things getting lost. Things move at a snails pace.
