Jumbled Mess

Pros

Entry level business position that can help you with time management. Get to drive lots of different cars. Sales and customer service experience

Cons

Management is just a mess. No organization. No one cares about you, only the sales goals. Way too much pressure to try and meet goals that are unrealistic. You never have what you need to get the job done whether it be cars or office supplies or cleaning supplies; there is always a shortage that somehow takes almost gouging out eyes to get anything solved. Computer system is a joke at best with lots of freezing and constant downtime because of software issues. Even employee help service is outsourced. Unless you are manager or above you can't perform simple tasks that are required daily (even though you aren't manager there are things asked of you that requires you to be one)...kind of leads to a conundrum. Total understaffing to a point that is laughable. No desire to try and hire more people, simply shift an employee from store to store which in turn leaves another store short and unable to perform up to "Hertz" standards. Prepare to ruin dress clothes and shoes being outside washing cars and cleaning them in the snow (I went through 3 pairs in a year...buy them cheap). I thought cleaning cars in a shirt and tie in 95 degree weather was a joke at first....it's not, I assure you.

Pros

Having a management team that believes in you make a world of difference! Great pay and opportunity. This is certainly a sales environment so your pay actually depends on your desire to earn which puts you in control.

Cons

Certain locations may need a better selection of cars. This job can be very demanding at times but what job isn't.
