Pros

I have been with Hertz since March of 2003. I work in the maintenance department. I make over $25 an hour and $37.50 on overtime. We make on average at least $60,000 a year and some of us have even made over a $1000,000. The reason why is because of the local 222 Teamsters the Union. Other departments can make excellent $$$ if you can upsell with customers. Excellent PTO. Decent health insurance.

Cons

Management is very unorganized. Understaffed in a lot of departments. At times you will be forced to work a lot of hours.

Pros

Great place to work in tandem with other professionals in your trade, always had a feeling of "family" working alongside my peers. We come together when times are tough, this is very rewarding,

Cons

The current economic and geopolitical spectrum have been proving a challenge to this industry as a whole, thankfully we are a resilient outfit with the best people at the helm.

Pros

It's a job in a bad economy. Decent vacation time but no money to go anywhere.

Cons

Favoritism, nepotism. We used to get profit sharing now it goes wherever it goes. New commission structure is bad.Dollar thrifty and hertz are all one yet hertz does all dollars work while they make the money and close whenever they want. Customers are always aggressive and rude.sick time is unrealistic. If you have any condition you have to get fmla and the company they use always refuse it. ,yet somehow the people that aren't sick are always on fmla.
