Good company overall

Pros

Depending on the area, working at United Rentals can be very fast paced and profitable. If you are in an area with a growing economy, there will always be people and companies needing equipment for construction. You are able to get experience in a wide area of fields, including purchasing, inventory management, and logistics.

Cons

United Rentals seems strangely averse to investing in decent technology. Proprietary application used for 100% of work activities is deeply powerful, but cumbersome, out of date, and poorly maintained. Inside Sales Reps have access to a quarterly bonus program, but have relatively limited ability to actually affect payout as total amount is tied to both overall location performance as well as district performance.

Territory Manager

Pros

As a territory manager you have a lot of freedom to create your own work week. You have high goals to meet each month but you set the pace. They provide a company vehicle, company credit card and cell phone. Lots of opportunity for vertical growth

Cons

Make you sign a non-compete. Micro-management using Salesforce is excessive. Constantly changing focus on what they want you to sell. Too much work - not enough money because they keep shrinking your territory

Common to work 50 hours a week in a branch, business can be seasonal.
